Happy to share some recent "summer science" papers from our lab. First, former graduate student @emmamills1.bsky.social's second dissertation paper on culture-enriched metagenomics of VREfm was published in Microbial Genomics @microbiologysociety.org www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/jour...
Culture-enriched metagenomic sequencing reveals within-patient diversity and transmission of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faeciumColonization of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract by vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) often precedes bloodstream infection and serves as a reservoir for onward patient transmission in h...www.microbiologyresearch.org
