Abstract

FAPESP's Institutional Technical Reserve has been viewed by FEQ as an opportunity to update and enhance the collective research infrastructure. There is an effort by the Faculty to maintain, expand and modernize its research infrastructure, even in periods of scarcity of official resources, and permanent and constant work has been done employing various sources of funds. In recent years priority has been given to improving infrastructure with a core approach in three main aspects:* Improved utility infrastructure to support research activities of decentralized research laboratories;* FEQ Common Use Laboratory (LRAC) Infrastructure Improvement* Infrastructure Improvement in Information Technology (AU)
