The journal (pronounced "I-Jay-Fab") is a publication of the International Network on Feminist Approaches to Bioethics.

Mary Rawlinson (of Stony Brook University) was its inaugural editor (2006) and served in that capacity until she stepped down in 2016.

She then transitioned to the position of senior managing editor when production was taken over by the University of Toronto Press in 2014.

"[1] The journal's fee structure is set up in such a way that copies can be made available for free to members in the Global South.

"[4] This issue addressed the contributions of feminist scholars to bioethics, aiming to show why gender matters in bioethics, and how feminist scholarship contributes to the field by shaping its methods, problems, and concepts.
