The journal aims: To provide a focus for interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary, leading-edge social science research on the new genetics and related biosciences; To publish theoretical and empirical contributions reflecting its multi-faceted development; To provide an international platform for critical reflection and debate; To be the primary resource for the many related professions, including health, medicine and the law, wishing to keep abreast of fast changing developments.
To achieve these aims, New Genetics and Society will publish papers on the social aspects of the new genetics (widely defined), including genetic engineering and modification; genomics, proteomics, and systems biology; and the rapidly developing biosciences such as biomedical and reproductive therapies and technologies, xenotransplantation, and stem cell research. The focus will be on developing a better understanding of the social, legal, ethical and policy aspects, including their local and global management and organisation.

In particular it will provide an outlet for contemporary theoretical and empirical research from anthropology, applied economics, cultural studies, gender studies, history, law, medicine, nursing, politics, psychology, social policy and sociology.
