At the 4th FAPESP 2026 Conference, immunologist Manoel Barral-Netto emphasized that Brazil possesses one of the world’s largest collections of health information. The challenge is to transform this data into knowledge applicable to public health.
Researchers from the State University of Campinas and the University of São Paulo have identified the chemical arsenal used by the pathogen to combat the defense systems of oranges, lemons, and tangerines. This finding suggests ways to combat the fungus without using pesticides.
A study involving a FAPESP-funded center concludes that conserving landscapes means more than just protecting isolated fragments.
An analysis of the trajectories of more than 400 entrepreneurs supported by FAPESP shows that international experience helps circulate knowledge and is crucial for the success of technology-based businesses in São Paulo.
In a study by the Federal University of São Paulo, rats that ingested the thickener over a prolonged period exhibited structural and inflammatory changes in the colon, as well as a loss of intestinal barrier integrity.
Digital Amazon, an initiative of the RCGI, a FAPESP Applied Research Center, consolidates data from satellites, towers, and sensors, enabling in-depth analyses of CO₂ emissions and absorption.
The fungus is one of the leading causes of hospital-acquired infections.
An analysis of 60,000 records of flooding, waterlogging, flash floods, landslides, storms, and droughts reveals regional impacts in Brazil and may inform public policy.
An international team of researchers has proposed a non-pharmacological intervention based on a physiological signal that precedes the neuronal storm of an epileptic seizure.
Findings from a study that monitored a group in Carlos Botelho State Park in São Paulo, Brazil, help shed light on the habitat use of this vulnerable species.
Researchers analyzed samples of sediment preserved in stalagmites to reconstruct the region’s climatic history. The 20th century saw one of the highest frequencies of extreme events in the last 7,500 years.
The FAPESP-backed health tech company is now headquartered in Switzerland and is developing a platform to produce tissues in a lab. The goal is to obtain clinical approval for transplantation within ten years.
The study published in Science helps us understand the role of this little-studied type of vegetation in climate change. One percent of the tallest trees store more than half of the carbon in tropical forest ecosystems.
The CABRA project, which received BRL 10 million in funding, will study the synergies between ethanol plants and basaltic formations in Brazil’s Southeast region.
In systems inspired by neural networks and synapses, an oxide-based structure combines processing and memory into a single component, with the potential to reduce energy consumption and increase efficiency.
Based in the city of São Paulo, the Interdisciplinary Center for the Development of Music Research is a partnership between FAPESP, São Paulo State University, and the Department of Creative Culture, Economy, and Industry.
Data from nearly the entire country indicates that the number of species rose from 26 to 82 between 2011 and 2025, in addition to 13 species of unknown origin. The authors highlight the need to strengthen biosecurity and early detection measures, as well as long-term monitoring programs, to improve our understanding of the impacts.
The 3D-printed, titanium-based multilayer structure combines two generally contradictory properties: strength and ductility.
Study conducted in the Ecuatorian Andes shows how heavy rains damage these silk-weaved traps and act as a kind of “ecological filter” for spider species.
The new unit will focus on data science, neuroscience, population-based epidemiology, and mental healthcare for children, adolescents, and young adults.
A ten-year experiment with European seabass reveals that the overpopulation of males caused by warm water is reversed by the birth of more females in the third generation.
