The project, which was presented during FAPESP Week London, will use 3D laser scanning to create a digital model of the renovated building and establish an information management system for preventive maintenance.

CIMMYT and the Government of Uzbekistan have signed an 18-month bridge phase agreement to modernize the country's wheat sector. The Advancing Wheat Innovation and Capacity in Uzbekistan (AWIC-UZ) bridge phase will introduce elite wheat germplasm, strengthen national breeding capacity, address priority disease threats — including yellow rust, soil-borne pathogens, and Fusarium head blight — and connect Uzbekistan to the global wheat disease surveillance and advisory system. The agreement lays the groundwork for a larger, follow-on partnership focused on food security and climate resilience across Central Asia.

The experimental technology, developed at an Applied Research Center at the State University of Campinas, is already accurate in over 80% of analyses. The research was presented during FAPESP Week London.

During FAPESP Week London, expert Fernando Landgraf pointed out that, beyond its mineral potential, the country must master the stages of refining and producing inputs that are globally contested by the United States and China.

A research group at the University of São Paulo is producing liquid crystal nanoparticles containing therapeutic molecules that reduce inflammation in diseases such as psoriasis and vitiligo. The advances were presented at FAPESP Week London.
