In this proposal we shall continue our efforts to generate cutting-edge science where fundamental and applied research will advance together in the field of optics. Our research program comprises three main thrusts: cold-matter physics, plasmonics and biophotonics, fields that linked by a common theme of light matter interaction. In parallel we shall advance fundamental understanding and …

The use of photonic supplementation and hydroponic cultivation are trends in precision agriculture. Seeking to improve agricultural quality and productivity, artificial lighting has been used in the form of photonic supplementation (photobiomodulation), biostimulating plants and influencing their development in favor of ideal quality. Understanding new forms of integrated management, as w…
Recently, we have been running experiments where a superfluid rubidium Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) is magnectically perturbed, and pushed out of equilibrium. This process usually drives the BEC towards quantum turbulence, which is one of the most studied phenomena in the laboratory. Turbulent BECs present large density and phase fluctuations, which are captured by imaging the atomic de…

Cancer has been one of the leading causes of death in the world. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been an increasingly accepted and widespread treatment option. The treatment efficacy depends on each of the three fundamental elements (photosensitizer, light, and oxygen) present in sufficient quantity throughout the tumor. However, there is a concern and need to understand if the application…
Topical photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a non-melanoma skin cancer treatment technique. Our research group is a pioneer in the country in the field, exploring from basic science to clinical studies. Over the years, we have carried out projects to develop protocols to improve cure rates and patient comfort. However, there are still some limitations that hinder medical acceptance of the techn…
Radiotherapy is one of the main treatment strategies in oncology. However, optimizing the technique is desired to increase patient cure rates, especially in radioresistant tumors, and decrease side effects in healthy tissues. Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMT) consists of the application of light in order to modify cellular processes such as proliferation, tissue repair and analgesia. In a…

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…
Cancer is the name for more than a hundred types of diseases that have in common the loss of cell differentiation ability and uncontrolled growth of cells, resulting in the formation of neoplasia such as tumors. In some cases, the options available for treatment of cancer are considered inefficient and are discarded because of several side effects, showing a need for the discovery of new …
