Despite advances in our understanding of the human microbiome, there exist significant knowledge gaps in our understanding of the skin microbiome of the preterm neonate. Herein, we describe skin microbiome sampling of six preterm neonates at multiple timepoints, and compare the skin microbiome samples to environmental (crib/isolette swabs) and negative controls. Samples of the same type (skin, crib, control) were more similar than when compared by week or by patient.
