The Futures Issue does not predict The Future. Instead, it is our attempt to demystify how the idea of The Future is constructed—a toolkit for building our own alternative paths forward.

How has biology contributed to inequities in our society? How could our field contribute to a fairer world in the future? We explore all of this and more in our most important issue yet.

Beauty is often considered a superficial quality, but it has tremendous power over us. An expression of our ever-evolving and surprising diversity, beauty can inspire great joy and creativity, but it can also become a tool of oppression. In Grow’s second print issue, we explore biology’s most mysterious trick in all its facets.

Nature offers tantalizing examples of the magical properties of biology—self-assembly, self-repair, self-replication and more. In our first print issue of Grow, we explore the complexities behind what that means for our growing ecosystem.
