Presented at FAPESP Week Netherlands, the tool analyzes ten substances in the blood to predict health problems and guide healthy aging.
In a presentation at FAPESP Week Netherlands, a researcher highlights the use of biochemical variables to tailor athletes’ rest periods and guide young talent, with a focus on the 2028 and 2032 Paralympic Games.
Data from research conducted in São Paulo and presented at FAPESP Week Netherlands show that physical exercise and cardiovascular prevention are the best strategies for protecting the brain.
At the event’s opening in Leiden, organizers emphasized the importance of the gathering for strengthening long-term cooperation in strategic areas such as sustainability, health, and technology.
An amendment to the agreement ensures the continuation of joint calls for proposals through 2028 and paves the way for new research centers, technology partnerships, and strengthened academic exchange between São Paulo and the Netherlands.
A preliminary study conducted at São Paulo State University in Brazil shows that the approach is safe, does not affect sleep, and helps regulate inflammation markers.
Study reveals that replacing just four amino acids alters the three-dimensional shape of a plant’s defense molecule. This finding paves the way for creating more resistant commercial cultivars.
Developed at the University of São Paulo in partnership with the Federal University of Minas Gerais and the company Cristália, the formulation could be the world’s first to target this strain of the disease. A Phase 1 clinical trial will evaluate its safety and the immune response it induces.
The method analyzes biological fluids in search of specific molecules produced by tumor cells or by the body itself in response to the tumor.
International study reveals that the maturation of secondary forests naturally reduces the density of non-native trees and restores ecosystems.
With an investment of BRL 165 million, OTIC brings together FAPESP, Shell Brasil, USP, and IPT to develop technologies focused on operational efficiency and low carbon emissions.
A study published on October 21 in Nature reveals that deforestation and wildfires reversed the forest’s CO2 balance between 2010 and 2024, nullifying its ability to sequester greenhouse gases.
Scientists at the University of São Paulo isolated the molecule while studying aerenchyma, structures the plant creates to form air channels in its roots. The discovery could increase the production of second-generation ethanol.
Through a partnership with IBAMA, researchers from São Paulo State University used DNA analysis to identify species in shipments of sea cucumbers and swim bladders of fish from the Amazon coast that were seized at Guarulhos Airport, Brazil’s largest airport.
An initiative developed at Hospital de Amor in São Paulo state cross-references genetic and epidemiological data to create risk assessment tools tailored to the Brazilian population’s diversity.
A computational model predicts the path of light radiation within the body to tailor noninvasive therapies to each patient’s anatomy.
The theoretical proposal eliminates the need for auxiliary circuits to “eavesdrop” on quantum bits by transforming the system’s own electric current into a mirror of the information.
A bioherbicide developed by a São Paulo startup optimizes field management and reduces the need for synthetic pesticides by up to 50%.
For the first time, research reveals the food subsistence strategies of these communities, which involved sophisticated land use practices that incorporated various species. Previously, it was believed that these populations were either hunter-gatherers or monoculture farmers.
A study involving Brazilian researchers analyzed samples from subway stations, hospitals, bank branches, soil, and sewage in 31 countries. The researchers used genetic screening with a tool developed at the University of São Paulo.
Scientists are seeking to reduce the initial growth of agave, which is considered one of the most promising crops for biofuel production and carbon sequestration in the semiarid region.
A system developed at the University of São Paulo combines radar data with a neural network to track precipitation every five minutes. The software can run on standard laptops.
