“Comparative genomics and pangenomics of vancomycin resistant and susceptible <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> from Irish hospitals across 20 years”

Abstract excerpt
Enterococcus faecium has emerged as an important nosocomial pathogen, which is increasingly difficult to treat due to the genetic acquisition of vancomycin resistance.
