Comparative Genomics of Two Common Skin Microbiome Members: CoNS Staphylococcus and Corynebacterium Tuberculostearicum

Explore the comparative genomics of two common skin microbiome members in this keynote presentation by Dr. Sean Conlan, Associate Investigator at NHGRI/NIH. Delve into the world of coagulase-negative Staphylococci (CoNS) and Corynebacterium tuberculostearicum as Dr. Conlan discusses their prevalence on human skin. Learn about the dominant genera present on skin, including Staphylococcus and Corynebacterium, and discover insights from 16S rRNA V1-V3 marker data analysis of 23 healthy volunteers. Gain valuable knowledge about the importance of the skin microbiome in atopic dermatitis, inborn errors of immunity, and healthcare-associated organisms. Participate in a live Q&A session following the presentation to further enhance your understanding of this fascinating topic in microbial genomics.
