- SYNTHESIS AND STRUCTURAL AND MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF TRANSITION METAL OXIDE POWDERS, AV.EXT
Abstract
Prof. Julietta Rau's relationship with the Laboratory of Anelasticity and Biomaterials started in 2019, on the occasion of the 6th Workshop on Artificial Organs, Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering, where she was one of the invited speakers, with the support of FAPESP (Proc. 2019/20791-9). Taking advantage of her visit, Profa. Julietta visited the Laboratory in Bauru, where she visited ou…
- The four youths facing the expansion of secondary enrolment and higher education: studying, working, finding yourself., AV.EXT
Abstract
In 2021, during a period of confinement due to the Covid-19 epidemic, we carried out an exploratory study of young people aged 18 to 24, from different social groups, based on four categories proposed by ECLAC: young people who only study, those who only work, those who study and work and those who neither study nor work. Is this classification enough to grasp the strong social inequaliti…

- New Nationalisms and Digital Sovereignty: Political Disputes in a Context of Multiple Crises, BP.PD
Abstract
This postdoctoral research project, affiliated with the FAPESP Thematic Project "Crises of Democracy: Critical Theory and the Diagnosis of the Present Time" (Grant No. 19/22387-0), aims to investigate the resurgence of political discourses advocating for digital sovereignty by political actors across different national contexts. The project seeks to test the hypothesis that the defense of…
- TEMPORAL LIPIDOMIC INVESTIGATION IN COVID-19 PATIENTS, BP.IC
Abstract
Covid-19, responsible for the pandemic started in 2020, is a respiratory system infection that is transmitted through saliva droplets, cough, sneezing and contact with infected objects. For patients, the presence of comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia and cardiovascular diseases can increase the severity of the disease. Viruses alter cellular metabolism to ensure…
- ADSORPTION OF ANTIDEPRESSANT (FLUOXETINE) IN AQUEOUS MEDIUM BY BIOSORBENTS PREPARED FROM SUGARCANE BAGASSE: MAGNETIC NANOCOMPOSITE AND ACTIVATED CARBON., BP.IC
Abstract
The development of water and effluent treatment methods to eliminate emerging contaminants (EC) is a widely discussed topic in the scientific community due to the persistence of these pollutants in the ecosystem and the immeasurable damage they cause to health. Among these, pharmaceuticals stand out, whose presence in water bodies is due to improper disposal and partial excretion by the h…

- Phenotypic study of extracellular vesicles and their relationship with senescence in the context of COVID-19, BP.EVC
Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized particles released by almost all cell types and are recognized as new tools for local and systemic intercellular communication. It has been demonstrated that EVs carry and transfer a wide variety of molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, microRNAs, messenger RNAs. These molecules may be involved in physiological functions, the pathology of …
- Investigation of the consequences of persistent platelet activation in long COVID on platelet cell death mechanisms and their clearance by efferocytosis, BP.EVC
Abstract
Long COVID is a disease characterized by the persistence of symptoms after the acute phase of COVID-19, lasting for weeks, months, or even years. Recent studies from our group have shown that thromboinflammatory mechanisms present in COVID-19, such as platelet activation and hyperresponsiveness, persist during long COVID following a severe case. However, none have demonstrated that these …

- Characterization of Torque Teno Virus (TTV) Genotypes and miRNA-TTV Shedding Dynamics in Saliva of COVID-19 Inpatients, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Torque teno virus (TTV) is a non-pathogenic component of the human virome, notable for its remarkable genetic diversity, currently comprising at least 39 genotypes. Its replication is closely linked to the host's immune status, with higher viral loads correlating with greater immunosuppression. TTV can also encode microRNAs (miRNAs), a feature believed to support immune evasion and explai…
- Multiscale coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations of Wuhan, Delta, and Omicron strains of SARS-CoV-2 and novel HKU5-CoV Lineage 2, BE.EP.PD
Abstract
A novel coronavirus with pandemic potential, designated HKU5-CoV-2, was recently identified in China. It shares notable similarities with SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic, and has been demonstrated to pose a significant risk of human-to-human transmission. In this study, we aim to advance the understanding of the molecular and structural mechanisms i…
- Strategic Communication of Health Regulatory Agencies in Latin America on Twitter during the COVID-19 Vaccination Campaign: Responding, Remaining Silent, or Aligning?, BE.EP.PD
Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, health regulatory agencies faced unprecedented public exposure in a context marked by epistemic uncertainty, political pressure, and disputes over technical authority. In this setting, communication emerged as a central mechanism for institutional positioning. This study advances a situated perspective on regulatory communication, challenging dominant approac…

- A Systems Vaccinology Study Between Humans and Animal Models for Translational Medicine, BE.EP.DD
Abstract
Vaccines have revolutionized modern medicine by protecting individuals through immune responses. However, differences in immune mechanisms across species, particularly between humans and animal models, pose challenges in translating preclinical findings to human applications. Using RNAseq and microarray data from different studies, this project aims to analyze the bridge in vaccine-induce…
- Extracellular vesicles derived from SARS-CoV-2 infected cells induces neuroplastic changes in neuron-glia enriched cultures derived from human olfactory neuroepithelium., BE.EP.DR
Abstract
As the incidence of new Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections has decreased, the World Health Organization has declared the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic to be over. However, the impact of this viral outbreak may last longer with the occurrence of neurological and psychiatric symptoms in those infected with SARS-CoV-2 several months after the display of primary res…
- Harnessing eATP-induced purinergic signaling to improve immunization strategies against viral infections, BE.EP.DD
Abstract
Vaccination is essential in preventing viral infections and enhancing public health by reducing disease incidence and complications. However, vaccine efficacy varies due to factors such as the pathogen's nature, vaccine type, and individual immune response. Intranasal immunizations can improve the immune response by stimulating tissue-resident memory T cells (TRMs), promoting early virus …
