Abstract
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a low-cost DNA amplification technique that is useful for low- and middle-income countries for the screening of infectious diseases. Current methods to detect the amplification assay are based on the analysis of samples using benchtop analysis tools for fluorogenic marker intensity and requires an expert to operate the device and analyze th…

Abstract
Our long-term goal is to make significant contributions to the advancement of methodologies used to produce clean energy and achieve carbon neutrality in the Oil&Gas industry. The specific objective of this SPRINT proposal is to seed new research projects to explore new technologies and infrastructure in deep-water offshore environments currently in place in Brazil and the US to achieve t…

Abstract
In the standard cosmological model, after inflation, the Universe is radiation dominated up till the matter-radiation equality when the cosmic radiation temperature is around 10 eV. In fact, the earliest evidence we have that the Universe is indeed radiation dominated is from the measurements of the abundances of light elements produced from the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) when the cos…

Abstract
Halo and cluster structure in nuclei are among the most exciting phenomena of contemporary nuclear physics. Some light proton and neutron-rich nuclei such as 6He, 8B, 10C, 11Li, 11Be, 15C and 17F, can exhibit large radial extension and exotic structures in which the valence nucleons extend outside the binding potential. The possibility of producing radioactive beams out of these nuclei of…

Abstract
Advances in communication technology, computational modeling, and control algorithms have enabled the transformation of data into knowledge and control of machines and systems in real-time with high accuracy via smart sensory devices and wireless networks. Such systems are known as cyber-physical systems (CPS). Industry 4.0 seamlessly connects designers, manufacturers, and consumers to in…

Abstract
The ongoing Fapesp Regular Project (grant number 2018/07624-3) was approved in August 2018 and focuses on: 1) inducing polyploidization of two diploid Paspalum species, 2) determining the cytogenetic and reproductive behaviors of all polyploids recovered and 3) identifying molecular markers linked to apomixis in Paspalum. Significant progress has been made to date, including: 1) confirmat…
