I think an interesting target for genetic enhancement is moral enhancement—both because it plausibly seems quite valuable and because it seems to avoid many of the most obvious objections to more stereotypical genetic enhancement. There’s a fair bit of existing work in the area and Moral Neuroenhancement is a good (in my amateur opinion) introduction.

(Also, I think Modelling the social dynamics of moral enhancement: social strategies sold over-the-counter and the stability of society is a fun/interesting paper on the topic. (One of the authors is Sandberg of FHI.))
