The map is derived from a study conducted by researchers at Brazil’s space research institute and collaborators, and combined airborne laser scanning, satellite imagery and forest inventories. The results will support planning, conservation and sustainable management decisions.

The study is the first-ever demonstration of the anatomical substrate for the cardiac arrhythmias that occur in human yellow fever. The YF virus affects the liver most of all; other organs besides the liver, however, are also affected, including the kidneys, brain, lungs, spleen, pancreas and heart.

In the global push for nature-based solutions to mitigate climate change, forest restoration in the tropics often takes the spotlight, but a new study shows the complexity behind it, and how smart economic solutions are critical.

Brazilian researchers analyzed air pollution in metropolitan São Paulo in 2019-20 when mobility restrictions and social distancing applied in the southern hemisphere’s largest city. Even so, the daily average exceeded the World Health Organization’s air quality standard on 75 days.

A study conducted at the University of São Paulo’s Optics and Photonics Research Center in Brazil showed a change in the bacterium’s sensitivity after five applications.The research group analyzed patient samples containing Staphylococcus aureus, a bacterium that causes a range of diseases from skin infections to pneumonia.

Researchers at the University of São Paulo’s São Carlos Institute of Physics developed the technique, which can be used in information processing and cell marking, among many other applications.

The São Paulo School of Advanced Science on Precision Livestock Farming (SPSAS-PLF) will be held on October 15-24, 2024, at the São Paulo State University’s School of Agricultural and Veterinarian Sciences (FCAV-UNESP) in Jaboticabal, São Paulo state, Brazil. 

This research carried out at the State University of Campinas focused on the use of nanometric optomechanical cavities as bridges between superconducting circuits and optical fibers, with applications in computing and quantum communications.
