INGested nanomaterials and metal MIXtures in food: developing integrated strategies to support human health risk assessment and regulatory frameworks (MixIng Tox)
Local CoordinatorFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia
MOTIVATION: Dietary exposure has been considered part of the exposome, therefore food safety is essential for individual and public health. Unquestionably, it is necessary to assure that preventive mechanisms are available to the scientific community and regulators, that rapidly respond to emergent needs of safety assurance of, for example, the...Oxicidade Humana de nanopartículas de titânio e cério em co-exposição com contaminantes clássicos.

CoordinatorFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia
Problem: Water is a vital resource for life, but according with the United Nations, in 2017, an estimated 3 billion people worldwide lacked the ability to safely wash their hands at home – one of the cheapest, easiest, and most effective ways to prevent the spread of diseases like the coronavirus, and despite progress 2.2 billion of people throug...Seagrass beds as green and blue infrastructures for ecosystem restoration (RemediGrass)
