The project we are proposing uses IFSC Science Degree students to use the educational kits -Adventures in Science, developed by us (with support from the Brazilian Academy of Sciences)to implement the practice of science as an educational element and create a digital platformwith students and teachers, which is accessible to everyone. Practicing science is afundamental element to consolid…
In this proposal we shall continue our efforts to generate cutting-edge science where fundamental andapplied research will advance together in the field of optics. Our research program comprises three mainthrusts: cold-matter physics, plasmonics and biophotonics, fields that linked by a common theme of lightmatterinteraction. In parallel we shall advance fundamental understanding and deve…
The RELAQS project joins the efforts of two groups in France and Brazil to explore the relaxation of many-body quantum systems prepared far from equilibrium. While quantum statistical mechanics provides a good description of physical systems in thermodynamic equilibrium, their behavior during relaxation is more challenging to predict from the microscopic model. In the case of far-from-equ…

Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, a situation worsened by the rise of antimicrobial resistance. Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy (aPDT) has emerged as a promising alternative, as its mechanism is based on oxidative damage-induced bacterial death, presenting a low risk of resistance development. Our research group has been using indocyanine green (ICG) and extern…
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a non-invasive therapeutic modality used to combat non-melanoma skin cancer and other precancerous lesions. PDT involves three essential components: a photosensitizer (PS), light at an appropriate wavelength to excite the PS, and oxygen molecules present in the tissue. The interaction of these three elements can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading…

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a promising technic for treating malignant neoplasms and premalignant lesions, particularly in the skin. Over the past two decades, advancements in basic research and multicenter clinical studies have facilitated the integration of PDT into clinical settings for non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC). While PDT is well-established for NMSC treatment, its applicatio…
This project seeks to experimentally investigate quantum turbulence and the evolution of ultracold atomic gases far from equilibrium. The undergraduate student will be integrated into experiments involving Bose-Einstein condensates, where he will have contact with techniques for cooling atoms, inducing turbulence and analyzing data obtained by time-of-flight expansion. The objective is to…
Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) has emerged as a promising approach in the treatment of various forms of cancer, with a particular emphasis on non-melanoma skin cancer. Skin cancer is a public health concern in Brazil due to its high incidence and the fact that the country spans a vast tropical region where sun exposure is frequent throughout the year. According to data fromthe National Cancer…

The use of dissolving microneedles (MNs) has been explored for optimization in photodynamic therapy (PDT) in our project in Brazil. The studies involve fabrication methods, mechanical characterization (strength and insertion ability), application in nonmelanoma skin cancer mice model, decontamination process using ozone, and a pilot clinical trial. However, basic studies considering MNs s…
Within the study of quantum systems made up of many particles, the investigation of phenomena out of equilibrium corresponds today to one of the frontiers to be understood. When the condensates are excited by external agents, whether through temporal changes in the potential or through manipulation of the interactions, defects are generated (solitons, vortices, etc.) that end up generatin…
This is a research proposal that is being directed to the Research Scholarship Abroad program (BEPE) - FAPESP and proposes a partnership between the University A&M Texas (USA) and the University of São Paulo (Brazil) in biomedical research for combating multiresistant bacteria. For this, we intend to explore new scientific ideas, tools and technologies that have the potential to significa…
