Recently published studies led by Brazilian scientists indicate an extension of the dry season from four to six months and an increase in the water deficit of more than 150 millimeters. These studies serve as a warning for 2026 and 2027, when a “super El Niño” is forecast.

Analysis of data from over 5,000 territories and 1,924 species of toads and frogs shows that two of the main theories about the biodiversity of plants, birds, and mammals in these habitats do not explain the richness of anuran amphibians on their own.

Research indicates that rivers in different regions of the planet are undergoing profound transformations that exceed their capacity for resilience.
Experiments with rodents show that metabolic dysfunction is “transmitted” to offspring through molecules present in sperm, causing them to become pre-diabetic. This phenomenon is reversible through weight loss before conception.
Researchers from the universities of São Paulo and Oxford show that the duration of the disorder and severity of symptoms are associated with differences in functional brain connections, which may pave the way for personalized treatments.
The study identified cultivars that maintain high productivity and resilience against attacks from the disease, paving the way for more sustainable cultivation in the region
A FAPESP-funded study using whole-genome data from across the continent tells a more detailed story of its settlement. The study was featured on the cover of Nature.
Researchers at a FAPESP-supported center developed a new method and identified the infection in two patients who died from acute hemorrhagic and neurological syndrome in São Paulo in 2019 and 2020.
Despite its popularity, researchers at São Paulo State University found no significant effects on inflammatory markers in the body after reviewing studies on the supplement.
Initiative combines validation with a mandatory fund that transforms credits into investments for science and society.
Research conducted by a FAPESP-supported center paves the way for producing chemical inputs widely used in industry, such as in medicines and cosmetics, where they act as active ingredients or stabilizers.

The assessment was made by the professor from the Federal University of Bahia during the 2nd FAPESP 2026 Conference. He also discussed the limitations of the current model, the need for objective criteria in educational policies, and the impact of artificial intelligence on teaching.
In ten years, levels of this type of pollution in São Paulo, Brazil, reached more than four times the limit recommended by the World Health Organization.
Made from non-toxic plant-based material, the devices can also monitor biomarkers, diseases, and nutrient levels in plants.
