Abstract

INSTITUTE OF PHYSICS, UNIVERSITY OF SÃO PAULO DEVELOP RESEARCH ACTIVITIES IN ALMOST ALL SUBÁRES PHYSICS. THE IFUSP PIONEER IN BRAZIL IN RESEARCH ACTIVITIES IN EXPERIMENTAL PHYSICS, ALSO HAS A HUGE PARK INSTRUMENTAL, INSTALLED OVER 40 YEARS OF ITS EXISTENCE. THE USP AND, IN PARTICULAR, FAPESP (THROUGH THEIR PROGRAMS SUPPORTING INFRASTRUCTURE RESEARCH) HAS ALLOWED SOME STEPS OF MODERNIZATION. HOWEVER, A LACK OF INSTITUTIONAL SUPPORT PROGRAMS HAVE PREVENTED THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SCIENTIFIC POLICY. THIS PROJECT, FROM TECHNICAL RESERVES, HAS THAT PURPOSE. (AU)
