Abstract

This proposal presents the needs and justifications of EERP-USP (University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto College of Nursing) for the use of part of the technical reserve of projects supported by FAPESP in 2016. The Research Support Center - CENAPq together with the departments and researchers established the needs and prioritization of the proposals, which are articulated around five major axes that reflect the projects presented here. The first axis is directed towards the Modernization of the EERP's Maintenance Vivarium, with a view to comply with the regulations of the Ethics Committee on Animal Use (CEUA) and maintenance of search conditions. The second axis is aimed at updating and maintaining research laboratories and support services for research; the third axis focuses on updating software for research. The fourth focuses on supporting research related to teaching aimed at expanding the use of different Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools directed to teaching and research at EERP-USP; and the fifth axis is aimed at strengthening and excellence in scientific publication. This set of actions will support several areas of research in the unit, expanding the scope of resources use. (AU)
