IJFAB: International Journal of Feminist Approaches to Bioethics is a biannual peer-reviewed academic journal providing a forum in bioethics for feminist thought and debate. The journal (pronounced "I-Jay-Fab") is a publication of the International Network on Feminist Approaches to Bioethics. Mary Rawlinson (Stony Brook) was its inaugural Editor (2006) and served in that capacity until she stepped down in 2016.[1] She was replaced by a team of editors including Robyn Bluhm (Michigan State University), Hilde Lindemann (Michigan State University), Jamie Lindemann Nelson (Michigan State University) and Jackie Leach Scully (Newcastle University).[2] Kate Caras as an employee of Indiana University Press was the journal's publisher from 2006-2014. 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 original Editorial Board was staffed by Donna Dickenson, Anne Donchin, Susan Dodds, Hilde Lindemann, Wendy Rogers, Arleen Salles, Toby Schonfeld, Susan Sherwin and chaired by Françoise Baylis.

In its mission statement, the journal states that "IJFAB welcomes feminist scholarship from any discipline on ethical issues related to health, health care, and the biomedical sciences, or to the social, economic, and environmental determinants of health."[3] The first call for papers was issued by Wendy Rogers and Carolyn McLeod (FAB Co-coordinators) and was published in 2008 as a special issue entitled, "Doing Feminist Bioethics."[4] This issue (Vol.1, No.1) 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. According to Mary Rawlinson, "[v]irtually every issue includes an array of global perspectives, as well as essays ...that clearly situate bioethical issues in their transnational context."[1] A number of IJFAB's published articles include original contributions in French and Spanish; as well, some articles have been "specifically written and translated for IJFAB."[1] The journal's fee structure is set up in such a way to be able to make copies available for free to members in the Global South.
