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.

Prebiotics, traditionally linked to gut health, are increasingly recognized for their systemic benefits, influencing multiple organ systems through interactions with the gut microbiota. Compounds like inulin, fructooligosaccharides (FOS), and galactooligosaccharides (GOS) enhance short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production, benefiting neurocognitive health, cardiovascular function, immune modulation, and skin integrity. Advances in biotechnology, including deep eutectic solvents (DES) for extraction and machine learning (ML) for personalized formulations, have expanded prebiotic applications.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic and inflammatory skin disorder characterized by impaired barrier function and imbalanced immunity. Recent advances have revealed that dysbiosis of skin microbiota plays important roles in the pathogenesis and development of AD. Meanwhile, endogenous and external factors contribute to the dysbiosis of skin microbiota in AD.

Introduction: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have become the first-line therapy in patients with advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). Antibiotics (ATB) have been reported to reduce ICI response in cancers, but this has not been evaluated in cSCC.

Aim: To evaluate ATB exposure at the onset of ICI in cSCC patients and to analyze its impact on outcome.

Human microbiomes are microbial populations that form a symbiotic relationship with humans. There are up to 1000 species on the surface of human skin and mucosal system, among which gut microbiota attracts the most interest. As the beginning of the digestive tract, oral cavity is also an important microbial habitat in the human body which is the first line of defense against pathogens entering the body.

Division of Dermatology, University College Cork, The National University of Ireland, Cork, Ireland; email:

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by the formation of nodules, abscesses, and fistulae at intertriginous sites. Pain, pruritus, malodor, and suppuration have a significant impact on quality of life for HS patients. Prevalence figures vary greatly in the literature from 0.
