News

eCM is now also listed in InCites Journal Citation Reports with Orthopedics in Quartile 1, straight in at number 8.

eCM Journal website was initially hosted by Aberystwyth University, where Editor-in-Chief and Founder R Geoff Richards studied and Production Editor and Founder Iolo ap Gwynn taught and undertook his research. Aberystwyth Old College needs to secure its future. The Old College Appeal will play a key role in transforming the iconic and much-loved building into a vibrant centre for learning, culture and enterprise and a major catalyst for the development of Aberystwyth University and town, opening to all in 2022 for their 150th anniversary.
