Poesia Reconcilia
Poesia Reconcilia, antologia com 105 poetas selecionados, é resultado do Prêmio Absurtos de Poesia 2023, que recebeu 731 inscrições, vindas de todas as regiões do Brasil. O tema deste novo projeto coletivo e independente surgiu a partir do desejo de intensificar o fazer poético como território de acolhimento dos próprios sentimentos e oportunidade para harmonizar realidades divergentes. Os versos contidos nesta coletânea evocam a força do diálogo, da empatia, do perdão, da alteridade e do autoconhecimento. A mão que escreve é a mesma que ampara e acaricia. Escrever poesia é entender a dinâmica de reconciliar-se consigo mesmo para depois reconciliar-se com o mundo. SOBRE A ORG...
Genetics, Evolution, and Conservation of Neotropical Fishes
Fish represent the most ancestral and specious group of vertebrates, and occupy more diverse aquatic environments around the world. Ichthyofauna is extremely diverse, especially in megadiverse countries occupying biogeographical regions such as the Neotropical Region, which covers an extensive area between North and South America. Much of this biodiversity will be extinct, even before science knows any aspect of its biology. Like this, Neotropical fish genetics started in the end of the 70’s with papers studying the chromosomes of Hoplias malabaricus (Family Erythrinidae) and the karyotype variation among three genera of the family Anostomidae. The topic at that time was concentrated in tw...

Gene function in schistosomes: recent advances towards a cure
Schistosomes are human parasites distributed worldwide in tropical and sub-tropical latitudes, especially in developing countries and impoverished regions. These neglected tropical disease (NTD) pathogens causes debilitating illnesses, which include hepatosplenomegaly, hepatic fibrosis, haemorrhagic necrotic ulcerations in the intestinal mucosa, urogenital tract diseases, in addition to cardiopulmonary, renal and neurologic lesions due to egg accumulation in the liver, intestines, uro-genital tissues and other sites. Urogenital schistosomiasis is a risk factor for bladder cancer and increases the risk of transmission of HIV infection. Despite extensive effort to control this NTD over the yea...
Immunomodulators in Aquaculture and Fish Health
This reference book provides updated information about different immunomodulators for managing fish health and sustainable aquaculture. Immunomodulators are dietary additives that enhance innate defense mechanisms and increase resistance against specific pathogens and diseases. The book covers the different types of immunostimulants, their modes of action, and their efficacies. It also reviews safety concerns, ethical regulations, limitations, and outreach to farmers. It discusses the application of herbal immunomodulators, antioxidants, pre- and pro-biotics, in disease management. Features: • Reviews the pressing topic of reduction of antibiotic use in aquaculture • Discusses herbal immunomodulators, nutrients, antioxidants and pre- and pro-biotics • Covers the topic of progressive immunomodulation using nanotechnology • Discusses fish health management in the ever-growing aquaculture industry • Includes natural and synthetic immunomodulators The book is meant for researchers and industry experts in aquaculture, fisheries science, and veterinary medicine.
Stem Cell Technologies meet Stem Cell Biology to Shine New Light into Tropical Infectious Diseases
The aim of this collection of articles is to assemble advances in stem cell-based approaches and their application to the study of parasitic diseases. Tropical parasites, including unicellular protozoan organisms and helminths, represent a major public health burden, particularly in tropical regions of the world. The study of these organisms is significantly hampered by the lack of effective in vitro/ ex vivo culture systems that mimic natural conditions and facilitate a thorough understanding of parasite development and host-parasite interactions. The advent of stem cell technology offers the opportunity to derive the right cell types to culture these parasites. Moreover, stem cell-derived organoids accurately reproduce the particular niche in which the parasites grow, develop, interact with host tissues and reproduce. In addition, particularly for helminths (i.e., multicellular parasites), the identification and characterisation of the parasite’s stem cell system, will be critical to complement our current and future understanding of fundamental biological processes, such as worm maturation, and interaction with the host immune system and microbiota.
From Fundamentals to Applications in Geotechnics
The work of geotechnical engineers contributes to the creation of safe, economic and pleasant spaces to live, work and relax all over the world. Advances are constantly being made, and the expertise of the profession becomes ever more important with the increased pressure on space and resources. This book presents the proceedings of the 15th Pan-American Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (XV PCSMGE), held in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in November 2015. This conference, held every four years, is an important opportunity for international experts, researchers, academics, professionals and geo-engineering companies to meet and exchange ideas and research findings in the ar...
Transdisciplinarity and Translationality in High Dilution Research
While evidence for the biological effects of high dilutions (above Avogadro’s number) has been extensively documented since the 1980s, it seems to remain invisible to part of the global scientific community. This book provides investigators and other interested readers with direct access to the latest research, conducted between 2009 and 2019, by members of the Groupe International de Recherche sur l’Infinitésimal, the first international scientific society devoted to scientific studies of high dilutions. As shown here, the state of the art in high dilution research allows answering with a sound, evidence-based “no” to the question “Is homeopathy really that implausible?” Therefore this book is an essential contribution to the ongoing debate on complementary and alternative medicine, much-needed by practitioners, patients, and governments in the formulation of healthcare policies.
XXVII Brazilian Congress on Biomedical Engineering
This book presents cutting-edge research and developments in the field of Biomedical Engineering. It describes both fundamental and clinically-oriented findings, highlighting advantages and challenges of innovative methods and technologies, such as artificial intelligence, wearable devices and neuroengineering, important issues related to health technology management and human factors in health, and new findings in biomechanical analysis and modeling. Gathering the proceedings of the XXVII Brazilian Congress on Biomedical Engineering, CBEB 2020, held on October 26-30, 2020, in Vitória, Brazil, and promoted by the Brazilian Society of Biomedical Engineering – SBEB, this book gives emphasis to research and developments carried out by Brazilian scientists, institutions and professionals. It offers an extensive overview on new trends and clinical implementation of technologies, and it is intended to foster communication and collaboration between medical scientists, engineers, and researchers inside and outside the country.
Igapó (Black-water flooded forests) of the Amazon Basin
Igapó forests are a common part of the Amazon whose ecosystems are critical to our shared human future. The introduction addresses the structure, function and dynamics of igapó forests in the Amazon basin, focusing on their uniqueness due to their high level of complexity defined as the many ways that different components of igapó forests in the Amazon basin ecosystem interact and also on how those interactions are on a higher-order compared to other tropical forests. The text then breaks down the igapó ecosystem using these sections: (1) Igapó forests over space and time, (2) Water, light and soils, (3) The carbon cycle, (4) Litter, fungi and invertebrates, (5) Vertebrates, (6) Plant population studies, (7) Plant community studies, and (8) Human impacts and management. Experts from around the world serve as chapter authors that review what is known about their specific part of the igapó ecosystem, what research they have done, and also what needs to be done in the future.
