Coagulase negative staphylococci species causing neonatal sepsis in LMICs
A retrospective analysis of coagulase negative staphylococci species causing neonatal sepsis in low- and middle- income countries. Samples were collected as a part of the BARNARDS-I study (a multi-site observational study). In total, 48 archived samples were recovered retrospectively for genomic characterisation. We performed microbiology and generated new high quality hybrid genome assemblies where possible for improved resolution.
