Teacher training is an important aspect for the implementation of inclusive education, as it is teachers who work most of the time with students in a situation of inclusion. Thus, the research aimed to investigate the papers indexed in the Portal de Periódicos da CAPES and in the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) platform that address the initial training of teachers of Natural Sciences and inclusive education, in the period from 2008 to 2022, in order to highlight the main trends related to this field of research. The study has a qualitative character. For the mapping of the papers, the search tool of the selected databases was used. The search for papers was based on the following equation: (“"NCLUSIVE EDUCATION”) AND (“Teacher Training”) AND (“Biology” OR “Physics” OR “Chemistry”). As a result, we obtained a universe of 283, of which 11 articles met the research criteria. Data were organized into three thematic axes: a) mapping of scientific production; b) the curriculum for the initial training of Natural Sciences teachers and inclusive education; c) conceptions of future teachers about inclusive education. We recognize that the results and reflections provided by this investigation are limited to the context of this investigation and the databases where the research was carried out. However, it is believed that the investigation seeks to contribute to a better understanding of how the area of Natural Science teacher training is articulated with inclusive education.
