Based on data from 7,065 Brazilians over the age of 50, researchers at the Federal University of São Carlos advocate for changing the cutoff score of the test used to assess muscle strength in order to identify the condition earlier.

The Sustainability and Innovation in Road Infrastructure Science Center for Development will receive BRL 7.7 million in funding from the Foundation and 42 scholarship recipients to apply new materials and solutions in pavement recycling.
In an interview with Agência FAPESP, world-renowned HPV researcher Luisa Villa explains why cervical tumors still kill thousands of Brazilian women, even though they are almost entirely preventable with vaccines and screening.
Research conducted at the University of São Paulo shows that changes in the prefrontal cortex caused by severe stress or trauma during adolescence may be linked to the onset of disorders such as schizophrenia and depression.
Also known as hydrocorals, four species found in Brazil – three of which are endemic – have historically been overlooked in reef monitoring. Researchers report the death of 100% of the monitored colonies of one of the species studied.
Technology improved by a FAPESP-supported startup enables contactless inspection of large industrial structures with greater speed, safety, and traceability.
It is estimated that up to 400 million people worldwide and nearly 14 million in Brazil have the chronic condition. A review by an international panel of 14 experts, including Brazilians, highlights the need to standardize diagnosis and treatment.
A subsidiary of the Federal University of São Carlos and spin-off of a FAPESP-supported center uses new materials in the synthesis of chemotherapy drugs for multiple myeloma, which could generate savings of 30% to 50% in time and investment.
