This science communication project intends to generate journalistic material about the research carried out by Task 5 of AmazonFACE, which investigates how changes in the forest generated by elevated CO2 (eCO2) impact socio-ecological systems in the Amazon and how human populations might adapt to these changes. The project also looks at how public policies are being produced in concert an…
In the past two years, the Interdisciplinary Study Group on Science and Technology (GEICT), a collective affiliated with the Department of Scientific and Technological Policy (DPCT) at the Institute of Geosciences, State University of Campinas (Unicamp), was awarded a Science Media grant from the José Reis Program for the Promotion of Scientific Journalism by FAPESP. The previous project …
The general objective of this research is to examine the possible implications in the concepts of justice and democracy, central to the activities of the Superior Court of Justice (STJ), when its daily practices begin to depend on artificial intelligence tools for the handling of processes and jurisprudence. To this end, I suggest an ethnographic investment on two main fronts, related to …

The purpose of the research is to investigate the development and use of artificial intelligence in order to improve Circulatory or Ventricular Assist Devices - known as Artificial Hearts. These are experimental and still unstable technologies, mechanisms designed as an alternative for organ transplantation. Mostly of the devices approved and implanted in human patients currently establis…
The project seeks to investigate practices known as DIY, especially those known as DIYbio, or do it yourself Biology. The subject is the theory and practice of Cyborg science in relation to the object DIYbio, from where I have been developing an investigation about the problem that is placed in this scientific practice that seems to question the place considered as necessary to realize sc…
This project seeks to upgrade the analytical and conceptual tools of the social studies of science field, especially concerning the governance discussion of science and technology that seeks to understand and analyze, critically, the social, political and ethical issues related to a number of varying technological controversies facing their sociological determinants. Among these types of…
