Close to 500 delegates from over 46 countries attended the biennial NeuroGASTRO 2023 meeting in Bucharest from Aug 31st to Sept 2nd, with the excitement palpable as we returned to a face-to-face meeting for the first time since 2019. Key opinion leaders presented the state-of-the-art developments in the field of Neurogastroenterology and Motility. It was particularly inspiring to see the quality and breadth of topics presented by young scientists, via both oral and poster presentations.

Gut dysbiosis participates in the pathogenesis of several intestinal and extra-intestinal diseases including inflammatory bowel disease, diverticular disease, celiac disease, and disorders of gut-brain interaction, neuropsychiatric and metabolic disorders. The huge knowledge that we have gained in only two decades since the advent of culture independent techniques, has brought gut microbiota in central stage in the field of medical sciences.

The participants in the 1st International School of Gut Microbiota in Digestive Disease, supported by Bromatech, will have the opportunity to interact with key opinion leaders that will serve as faculty in this unique event.

Today, nothing is more important than networking to build up successful collaborations with scientific output. Therefore, ESNM created the independent young investigator meeting "nEUROgastro TANDEM" to stress the European collaboration of basic and clinical scientists and practitioners in neurogastroenterology. The next "nEUROgastro TANDEM" will be held in Bucharest from September 28 to 30, 2023, prior to our biennial meeting “NeuroGASTRO 2023”.
