Our history and structure

Our structure

We have a talented team of editors, led by our editor-in-chief, who manage the process of receiving, reviewing, accepting, and editing article submissions. We have an active editorial board, led by our board chair, that takes on a variety of tasks to support the continued success of Weave, including updating our online presence, fundraising, and improving journal workflows.
