A review study compiling scientific data from 55 countries reveals alarming levels of pollution in urban and aquatic environments. Not even protected and remote areas are completely free from the problem.
The data are from a project linked to the Center for Research and Innovation in Mental Health, one of the Applied Research Centers funded by FAPESP. The study was conducted with 1,158 caregivers of young people aged 14 to 23.
A clinical trial conducted at the University of São Paulo demonstrated that both non-pharmacological approaches improve quality of life and alleviate respiratory and anxiety symptoms in the medium term.
Developed at the Institute of Food Technology with support from FAPESP, the innovation could serve as an alternative to proteins from soybeans or peas, which are largely imported.
A study followed more than 3,000 people over the age of 60 for eight years and found that this decline is not observed in women.
Research on sickle cell anemia spurred the development of genetic technologies, but there is an urgent need to democratize access to modern therapies, noted French hematologist Jacques Elion at a conference hosted by FAPESP.
Startup develops a sensor that measures interactions between molecules with high precision, which can reduce the time and costs of discovering drug candidates.
Understanding how Trypanosoma cruzi manipulates its own RNA to alter protein production and invade the host could lead to new therapeutic approaches against the disease.

Led by a Brazilian researcher, a study published in Nature shows that molecules with nearly identical three-dimensional structures can exhibit completely different behaviors over time.
A researcher affiliated with a FAPESP-funded center is studying monoclonal antibodies capable of neutralizing different variants of SARS-CoV-2.
Study shows that combining the two compounds with conventional treatment may be a promising alternative, reducing the need for antibiotics.
Research conducted in 34 countries compared six practices designed to foster gratitude with three control measures, observing variations in effects based on cultural differences.
A case report published in the journal CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians shows how genetic analysis and molecular biology studies helped confirm the diagnosis, guide preventive surgeries, and define personalized surveillance strategies across generations.
In tests conducted on mice, a single dose of the formulation containing genetically modified viruses protected the rodents against the disease.
