This page assembles Research Grants and Scholarships - recently approved by FAPESP - and allows an overview of these projects and access to their referential information.
The use of available refinements, by area of knowledge, types of support, institutional programs and others, facilitates the search of specific information. Additionally, the page provides a set of complementary resources, such as maps of geographic distribution of sponsored projects by cities of the state of São Paulo, historical charts of sponsored projects and number of projects by year.
Depressive disorder is characterized by anhedonia, self-care impairment, persistent sadness and negative thoughts for, at least, two weeks. Exposure to stress during infancy and adolescence, periods when the brain undergoes intense changes and maturation, may increase the risk to paychiatric disorders in adulthood. The purpose of the present proposal is to assess the effects of maternal d…
The DUNE experiment [1] aims to precisely measure neutrino oscillation parameters, investigate proton decay, and detect supernova neutrinos. Additionally, it will contribute to the study of physics beyond the Standard Model, including non-standard interactions (NSI), Lorentz violation, CPT violation, solar and atmospheric neutrinos, neutrino cross-section measurements, and dark matter sea…
Multifunctional compostable films represent a strategic approach to reducing environmental impacts while enhancing product value, particularly in food and agricultural applications. In this context, we propose to investigate commercial blends of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and polylactic acid (PLA) containing varying amounts of thermoplastic starch (TPS). These PBAT/PLA…

This project aims to examine Smith's conception of probability in light of the criticisms and reservations expressed in The Wealth of Nations about the use of 'political arithmetic' (Petty and Cantillon) as an instrument of the art of government.The point is essential because most commentators of Smith's writings tend to point to the problem as symptomatic of the author's more general int…
This proposal aims to develop a theory of geometric structures on Lie groupoids. More precisely, we willgeneralise both standard approaches to G-structures (via reductions of the structure group and via the tautologi-cal/soldering form) and discuss several interesting examples.This problem is motivated by the fact that, in many situations, geometric structures appear on manifoldswith sing…

Maintaining genomic stability is crucial for cell survival and is ensured by complex DNA repair systems. Defects in these mechanisms are associated with various pathologies, including chromosomal instability syndromes and cancer predisposition. Cells deficient in nucleotide excision repair become hypersensitive to DNA-damaging agents. This project aims to investigate the cellular response…
Termites (Blattodea: Isoptera) are eusocial insects that play a fundamental ecological role by actively contributing to the carbon cycle through the decomposition of lignocellulose in plant substrates. The digestion of this material is a complex process mediated by symbionts present in the termite gut microbiota, which are also associated with the nests, as fecal material mixed with saliv…
Over the past decade, one of the topics developed by the research group under my leadership has been Nanobiotechnology applied to cancer research. This approach focuses on the study of cancer cell behavior, encompassing cellular, biochemical, physiological, genetic, and immunological aspects. Related to this topic, we seek to evaluate nanostructured complexes produced by coupling pharmace…

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), emitted by various industries and natural sources, are key precursors for haze formation in the atmosphere and also present a high potential for toxicity to humans. Many VOCs are toxic and can cause carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic effects in humans [1]. Therefore, it is very important to eliminate VOCs to meet environmental regulations and healt…
Masking a darkened substrate, such as a tooth with high saturation, is a major challenge for clinicians. There is still no consensus regarding the necessary substrate preparation thickness or level of translucency required to conceal a darkened substrate, which is fundamental to achieving aesthetic success in a restoration while maintaining naturalness. The objective of this study is to e…
Leptin is a pro-inflammatory adipokine that interacts with several immunepathways and may influence the progression of apical periodontitis (AP).Evidence suggests that chronic stress modulates leptin production and altersneuroimmunoendocrine mechanisms capable of intensifying local inflammatoryresponses. However, it is not yet fully understood how systemic stress influencesleptin expressi…

Platelets are cells that play a fundamental role in tissue hemostasis. In addition, they play an important role in modulating the immune response, both innate and adaptive, through interactions with leukocytes and the secretion of inflammatory mediators such as cytokines, chemokines, and nitric oxide. Beyond their functions in immune response and coagulation, platelets are also involved i…
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-derived structures naturally secreted by cells, playing a crucial role in intercellular communication and showing great potential as nanocarriers of bioactive molecules. This project aims to evaluate the use of EVs as delivery vehicles for antioxidants in feline ovarian tissue, seeking to reduce damage induced by cryopreservation and oxidative str…
Change detection is an important task performed in remote sensing image that allows researchers and engineers to identify and evaluate modifications on land surfacescaptured by multi-temporal satellite images. Analyzing problems such as deforestation(Barreto et al., 2016), rapid urbanization (Ban and Yousif, 2012) and glacier melting(Scher et al., 2021) are of great importance to study th…
In the food industry, packaging plays a key role in ensuring that the population has access to safe and nutritious foods. However, most food packaging is made from synthetic polymers derived from petroleum, the extraction, refining, production, and disposal of which cause considerable environmental damage. In most cases, they do not contribute to food preservation beyond their role as phy…
The organization of the chromosome is an area that deeply intrigues a vast portionof academia, and for good reason. Studies over time have shown the functional dependencebetween a tissue's cellular expression profile and the structural conformation of chromatin,precisely because the accessibility to the information contained in the chromosome isbased on more or less coiled chromatin regio…

This current research internship project abroad aims to analyze the production of tourist-real estate ventures linked to financial markets, particularly regarding the appropriation of the environmental dimension in their projects. It is based on the theoretical-analytical framework of "planetary financialization," in which the dialectical relationships between the logics and practices of …
Calibrating parameters and selecting suitable models to describe hysteresis effects in bolted joints is a highly challenging task. First, it requires defining parameters that govern hysteretic and memory behavior in dynamic systems based on controlled-vibration data, while acknowledging that several existing models can describe these effects. Moreover, performing this identification withi…
The conservation of endangered species requires diverse tools, including innovative biotechnological strategies that preserve genetic diversity and enable assisted reproduction. This project aims to isolate fibroblasts from ecologically and conservational important avian species, including Chlamydotis macqueenii (Asian Houbara Bustard), Chlamydotis undulata (North African Houbara Bustard)…

The Orthoherpesviridae family comprises enveloped DNA viruses and is divided into three subfamilies: Alphaherpesvirinae, Betaherpesvirinae, and Gammaherpesvirinae. Herpesviruses are predominantly species-specific, generally causing mild infections, but they can become more virulent when they jump to other species, being lethal in most cases. Marsupials of the genus Didelphis are widely di…
This research analyzes the conflict potential of international river basins using a multicriteria approach based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Drawing on a global dataset of 313 transboundary basins, four analytical variables were applied: presence of cooperation agreements, transboundary nature, water stress, and socioeconomic indicators. The results were spatialized in a GIS …
