Farms in southern Brazil that diversified their crops and kept their soil permanently covered with vegetation weathered a run of severe droughts and historic floods far better than neighboring conventional operations, according to research conducted by the Center for Carbon Research in Tropical Agriculture at the University of São Paulo. Over three growing seasons marked by climatic extremes, diversified systems reached yields as much as 76 percent above the state average, while farms relying [...]

One of the fundamental challenges of quantum computing is obtaining information from a quantum bit, or qubit. Unlike a conventional bit, which can be read repeatedly without altering its content, direct measurement of a quantum system typically causes the state to collapse before it can be determined. In other words, reading the information modifies it. A new study proposes circumventing this problem by using a unique property of a certain type of qubit called an "Andreev qubit." This qubit [...]

Brazilian research published in the journal Scientific Reports sheds light on the rapid and often fatal deterioration in the health of newborns with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). In addition to uncovering the biological mechanism behind this sudden deterioration, the study raises concerns about the treatments currently used in neonatal intensive care units. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia is considered a rare condition that occurs when the diaphragm (the muscle that separates the [...]

Presentada en la Semana FAPESP de los Países Bajos, la herramienta analiza diez sustancias en la sangre para predecir problemas de salud y orientar hacia un envejecimiento saludable. El tabaquismo se identificó como el factor negativo con mayor impacto en la puntuación metabólica. Por otro lado, el aumento de la actividad física regular mejora la puntuación
