Staphylococci include both nasal commensals and opportunistic pathogens, globally responsible for a large proportion of infection-related deaths, especially in S. aureus carriers. To understand staphylococcal temporal dynamics within the nasal microbiota, we employed Staphylococcus-targeted sequencing in two cohorts from Denmark and Germany.
