Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR)
The agreement with ANR, France, aims to welcome, encourage and support applications that may cut across national boundaries and involve international collaborative teams. The Parties also welcome interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary applications between researchers from France and the State of São Paulo, Brazil.
With their large internal surface area and severely confining porosity, nanoporous materials are at the forefront in the mitigation strategy to the environmental and energy crisis with key applications in adsorption, catalysis, insulation, etc. Yet, despite intense research on the behavior of nanoconfined fluids, heat generation, transfer, and dispersion involved in adsorption-based proce…
Tropical grassy biomes (TGB), the world's ancient savannas and grasslands support outstanding biodiversity and provide key ecosystem services. Historical misunderstandings of TGB led to ineffective conservation and restoration practices. Upscaling restoration of TGBs requires tailored, evidence-based actions to ensure the effectiveness of restoration projects for biodiversity, ecosystem f…
Advances in sequencing techniques and genome assembly pipelines have allowed the development of large-scale projects focused on generating high-quality reference genomes that will contribute to a better understanding of species diversity and evolution. The establishment of reference genomic resources is also key to biodiversity conservation issues. Data from these and other initiatives ha…

This project aims to study the brown algae Sargassum spp. which is landing in the Caribbean region and northeast of Brazil in order to better manage the biofouling by the algae and develop methods for valorization of the biomass. Sargassum are brown algae, originally found in the Sargasso Sea, located in the Gulf of Mexico. The flow of sargassum is becoming a serious environmental problem…
Since 2011 pelagic Sargassum strandings in the Caribbean basin have had significant environmental, health, economic and socio-political consequences and a substantial impact on tourism. Research so far tends to confirm the existence of a new ecosystem subjected to movements of water masses across the equatorial Atlantic. The phenomenon occurred in 2011 and the 2012-2018 period, along with…
Since 2010, massive and repeated invasions of sargassum seaweeds (s. fluitans and s.natans) have taken place on coasts of Caribbean countries. Stranding of these brown algae represents not only an environmental and economic disaster but also a real threat to human health due to the production of toxic gaseous and organic compounds that are not yet completely identified. Among them, howeve…

The moduli space of solutions to the equations of motion of a physical theory often carries geometric structures that encode interesting features of the theory such as its symmetries. If the physical theory is defined on some manifold, then the symmetries of the theory place nontrivial constraints on the geometry of the manifold. In particular, there is a fascinating interplay between the…

Despite the growing expansion of literature on illegal markets, little research strays from normative approaches that link the existence and expansion of these markets to the lack of economic and urban development. Furthermore, there are still few empirical studies that focus on how these markets impact everyday life and socio-spatial dynamics. Therefore, in order to contribute to overcom…
This post-doctoral research contributes to the Project "Global cars: a transnational urban research on vehicle informal economies" and proposes an analysis of quantitative data on second-hand vehicle and auto parts market in Europe, West Africa and America. This Project intents to contribute to a recent debate on automobiles and the automobility regime in contemporary, through an analysis…
