state-of-the-art, multi-user and multidisciplinary scientific environment and works on different fronts within the Brazilian National System for Science, Technology and Innovation. A social organization overseen by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI), CNPEM is driven by research that impacts the areas of health, energy, renewable materials, and sustainability. It is responsible for Sirius, the largest assembly of scientific equipment constructed in the country, and is currently constructing Project Orion, a laboratory complex for advanced pathogen research. Highly specialized science and engineering teams, sophisticated infrastructure open to the scientific community, strategic lines of investigation, innovative projects involving the productive sector, and training for researchers and students are the pillars of this institution that is unique in Brazil and able to serve as a bridge between knowledge and innovation. It is responsible for operating the Brazilian Synchrotron Light (LNLS), Biosciences (LNBio), Nanotechnology (LNNano), and Biorenewables (LNBR) National Laboratories, as well as the Ilum School of Science, which offers a bachelor\u2019s degree program in science and technology with support from the Ministry of Education (MEC).<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article published by CNPEM researchers used the Cateret\u00ea beamline to analyze the corona formation process in silica nanoparticles An article published by CNPEM researchers was featured on the Nano Letters&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":28,"featured_media":58572,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1458,1481,1461],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-58573","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-releases-cnpem-en-2","category-releases-lnls-en","category-noticia-home-en-en","category-1458","category-1481","category-1461","description-off"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
