JCC – Journal of Crohn’s & Colitis

 

 

"Wonderful news!” Our Journal of Crohn's and Colitis (JCC) just received its 2010 Impact Factor of 2.628! This is a 52% further increase from our 2009 Impact Factor. We are very thankful for all of the hard work by our JCC team headed by Miquel Gassull and Eduard Cabré, all our editors and of course all our authors who entrusted their research outcomes to be published in our Journal. We are seeing a tremendous growth of original manuscripts submitted to the JCC which has led us to decide to increase the number of annual issues from 6 in 2011 to 8 in 2012. We are anticipating having 12 annual issues in 2014. It is very exciting to see that papers are being submitted from all regions in the world. In addition, ECCO has greatly invested in the further development and growth of the number of IBD guidelines and guideline updates which will be submitted to the JCC.

 

We truly hope that the success of the JCC and the recognition of our journal as an authorative platform for IBD science will encourage you to keep submitting your scientific work to the JCC. Our very rapid review time of only 2 weeks, our speedy online publication, our pubmed citation and the publication of the JCC Table of Content in the ECCO News are only some of the attractive features of our journal.

 

Thank you for your trust and support!

 

On behalf of the Governing Board of ECCO,

Daniel Hommes, ECCO President

 

 

 

New JCC cover – issue 1/2011

 

The Journal of Crohn's and Colitis is the official journal of the European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation (ECCO) and is concerned with the dissemination of knowledge on clinical, basic science and innovative methods related to Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD).

 

The journal publishes original articles, review papers, editorials, leading articles, view points, case reports, innovative methods, abstracts and letters to the editor. JCC will be published every two months (6 issues per year) and will cover the knowledge and science related to Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: The aims are to update, innovate and challenge.

 

JCC is defined as an “International Journal”. Although it is the official journal of ECCO, it is open to everyone in the world interested and working in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases.

 

The Journal of Crohn’s and Colitis (JCC) has performed extremely well over the past two years. The impact factor has increased to 2.628 in 2010 and the number of submitted papers has increased significantly. Both this indicates that the JCC is becoming the rising star among the journals in the IBD field. In 2010, JCC was accepted for MedLine citation, which motivates us – as ECCO – even more to work on the quality and exposure of our journal.
