- Controlling infection using NK-92 cells expressing a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) specific to Aspergillus spp., AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) therapy is a new approach that utilizes bioengineering to modify immune cells so they are able to specifically target and kill pathogens or altered host immune cells (such as cancers). This approach involves generating modified cell surface molecules (chimeric receptors) and expressing these receptors in host immune cells. As these chimeric receptors recogn…
- Adipocyte Rictor/mTORC2 as mediator of the metabolic effects of the omega 3 polyunsaturated eicosapentanoic acid in obesity and associated metabolic diseases, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
We propose herein to investigate the role of adipocyte Rictor/mTORC2 as mediator of the beneficial and protective effects of polyunsaturated omega 3 fatty acids (n-3 fatty acids) against obesity and associated metabolic diseases. More specifically, we will investigate whether adipocyte Rictor/mTORC2 deficiency (adipocyte Rictor deletion) affects the pro-energy expenditure, insulin sensiti…
- Biomolecular markers of proliferation and remodeling in acute and chronic respiratory diseases: promising therapeutic targets, AP.TEM
Abstract
The prevalence and social cost of respiratory diseases such as lung cancer, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, silicosis, and pulmonary arterial hypertension are high and some of them have few therapeutic alternatives. The therapy of most of these diseases is based on symptomatic control and not on effective cure. The present proposa…

- USP-TAMU collaboration for a sustainable offshore exploration: targeting optimized, energy-efficient, low-carbon and safe operations, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
Our long-term goal is to make significant contributions to the advancement of methodologies used to produce clean energy and achieve carbon neutrality in the Oil&Gas industry. The specific objective of this SPRINT proposal is to seed new research projects to explore new technologies and infrastructure in deep-water offshore environments currently in place in Brazil and the US to achieve t…
- Evaluation of a field-portable platform for image-based analysis of a (quantitative) loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a low-cost DNA amplification technique that is useful for low- and middle-income countries for the screening of infectious diseases. Current methods to detect the amplification assay are based on the analysis of samples using benchtop analysis tools for fluorogenic marker intensity and requires an expert to operate the device and analyze th…
- Peroxisomes as mediators of the metabolic effects of fish oil in obesity and associated metabolic diseases, AP.R SPRINT
Abstract
We propose herein to investigate the role of peroxisomes as mediators of the beneficial and protective effects of n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega 3 FA) against obesity and associated metabolic diseases. More specifically, we will investigate whether hepatocyte and adipocyte peroxisome deficiency (Pex5 deletion) affects the pro-energy expenditure, insulin sensitizing and …

- Undersea separation of CO2 from natural gas through ionic liquids, BP.PD
Abstract
Carbon Capture and Utilization (CCU) technologies can be enhanced by using suitable Ionic Liquids (ILs). However, the complexity of IL-CO2 interactions makes it challenging to develop IL-based CCU processes, especially at high pressures. In addition, at high-pressures (>73.8 bar) and moderate temperatures (>31°C), the CO2 became a supercritical fluid, presenting other unique properties. T…

- Cell viability study in titanium alloys superficially modified by laser ablation, BE.EP.IC
Abstract
This project for Research Internship Abroad (RIA) proposes to perform in vitro cell assays on samples of the Ti-6Al-4V superficially modified by laser ablation. The study will be carried out at the Bone Lab - Biomaterials for Osseointegration and Novel Engineering, at the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD), under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Danieli Rodrigues, as an additional step of th…
- Understanding beef cattle metabolism: i) metabolomics approach and biological meaning; ii) calves metabolism and health through nutritional strategies, BE.EP.MS
Abstract
Weight gain is the most important economic variable in beef farms, serving as a key indicator that the production system is being managed correctly and will be profitable for the producer. Beef cattle farming in Brazil is one of the most prominent agricultural activities and plays a crucial role in the national economy. Zebu breeds (Bos indicus), originating from India, possess the necess…
- AUTOMATED PHENOTYPING OF REPRODUCTIVE STRUCTURES IN SOYBEAN AND THE USE OF MELATONIN: APPLICATION OF MACHINE LEARNING IN THE DETECTION OF FLORAL ABORTION UNDER ENVIRONMENTAL STRESS., BE.PQ
Abstract
Population growth and climate change significantly challenge agricultural production, especially in rainfed systems such as soybean cultivation. Heat and water stress are critical factors that affect crop yield, leading to reduced photosynthetic rate, hormonal imbalance, and floral abortion, which directly impact grain yield. The phenotyping of reproductive structures, such as flowers and…

- Climatic Controls on the Isotopic Variability of Rainfall in Central Amazon, BE.EP.MS
Abstract
The stable isotopes of hydrogen (1H/2H) and oxygen (16O/17O/18O) in precipitation are employed as crucial tools in investigating the governing climatic parameters in rain events. In tropical zones, classical isotopic relationships between temperature and precipitation quantity are not evident, underscoring the importance of a meticulous analysis that incorporates a broad range of meteorol…
- Development of powdered Levofloxacin loaded NLC by advanced processing techniques, BE.EP.IC
Abstract
The pulmonary drug delivery can benefit local therapy for lung diseases by promoting high concentration of the drug in the site of action and rapid effect onset. Concerning treatment of bacterial infections, Levofloxacin (fluoroquinolone) stands out as a broad-spectrum agent and effective for invasions of the respiratory tract; it has also pulmonary delivery approved by European Union and…
- Model Merging for Large Language Model, BE.EP.IC
Abstract
Ensemble methods have been successfully used to leverage diversity from different models, improving performance, at the cost of inference time. In the situation where the compounding models are neural networks that share the same architecture, merging methods have appeared as an alternative to ensembles, without the drawback of increasing inference time. This research project aims to stud…
