This Research Topic is the second volume of the 'Community Series in Neurogastroenterology – Focus on the Gut-Brain Axis'. Please see the first volume

Functional gastrointestinal disorders such as functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome are very common and show considerable alterations in gut-brain signaling. This has recently been extended by the gut microbiome and therefore is also referred to as the microbiome-gut-brain axis.
The importance of these alterations has been taken into consideration in the new Rome IV criteria summarizing the disorders of the gut-brain interaction. The present Research Topic will highlight new developments in:
• the pathophysiology of functional gastrointestinal disorders such as inflammatory and microbiotic changes
• the – still challenging – treatment of these conditions.
We are calling authors to submit the latest innovative basic as well as clinical research examining any aspect of Neurogastroenterology. Original studies, reviews, or theoretical papers on animal models, stress, microbiome, inflammation, eating disorders, drug treatments, psychotherapy and other related topics are welcomed.
