Popis: Here, the authors characterize the microbiome and resistome in a longitudinal cohort of 159 international students visiting the Andean city of Cusco, Peru. They find that international travel associates with spread of antimicrobial resistance, and that travelers’ diarrhea increases a persons’ risk for acquiring antimicrobial-resistant pathogens, while a diverse, “healthy” microbiome can be protective against diarrhea.
