Abstract

According to FAPESP, the Technical Reserve for Institutional Research Infrastructure (RTI) is intended to support collective research infrastructure that benefits Research Projects supported by FAPESP in the institution. Thus, the Local Research Commission made a work to a policy of applying the resources of RTI/FAPESP in the UNESP - Campus of Registro. This Campus has for 2014, an amount of R$ R$ 13,029.00 of RTI/FAPESP. Thus, the Local Research Commission received proposals from UNESP/Registro researchers, conducted extensive discussion and adopted the suggestion of apply the financial resources in the restructuring/adaptation of existing place at the Experimental Farm for reception and first processing of samples from field, that was successfully initiated using the 2013 RTI/FAPESP. The improvements and conclusion of the restructuring will benefit all the researchers because they are multidisciplinary, like the assumptions of FAPESP. At the present, almost 21 research projects intend to use this laboratory. The Director Board approved the application in August 21, 2014. The plan of use of RTI will be 12 months; it is expected to start from January 2015. (AU)
