Biosemiotics editorial board meeting attended

Today I have attended the annual editorial board of Biosemiotics, which took place via Zoom. The editorial board meeting was attended by some 20 people, under the leadership of the new Editor-in-Chief, Yogi Hendlin and co-Editor in Chief Alexei Sharov.

In 2020, my last year as lead Editor-in-Chief, the Impact Factor went down from 2019, but the number of downloads increased to record numbers (ca. 59.000, vs. 44.000 in 2019). In 2021, both the number of articles published and the number of article downloads have increased to new record-levels, while processing times have decreased significantly (probably partly due to the new editorial setup with several Associate editors).
