The agreement with the West Virginia University (WVU), United States, aims at implementing scientific and technological cooperation between researchers from WVU and from the State of São Paulo, Brazil, through the funding of joint research projects.
Current plant breeding approaches have failed to harness the full potential of tolerance to abiotic stress available in wild crop relative species by genetic introgression to crop varieties. This difficulty is due to the highly complex polygenic traits involved in these stresses. Nevertheless, highly-tolerant crops are urgently needed in the face of scarcity of arable land and fresh water…
This project focuses on research in bioprocess applications from joint Brazil-U.S collaboration between UFSCar and WVU that addresses the modern challenges of bioprocess modular manufacturing. This collaboration has been ongoing since 2015 and thus has already created research and educational opportunities for both countries. The outcomes of this project are expected to lead to a framewor…
The main goal of this project is to develop a novel rehabilitation paradigm using functional electrical stimulation (FES) driven by a dynamical model of the human lower limb. We will use the model to assess the changes in active muscle forces that lead to the limited knee flexion in the paretic limb as post-stroke individuals walk. In the first year of the project, we will assess the over…
Um sistema portátil de eletroestimulação funcional (Functional Electrical Stimulation - FES) será desenvolvido e implementado para aplicações controladas de estimulação elétrica em músculos dos membros inferiores durante o andar de indivíduos com hemiparesia em decorrência de acidente vascular encefálico (AVE). Tal sistema será composto por dois estágios principais: estágio de controle e …
