Traditionally organized by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI), the SNCT also included local activities from its affiliated units, including visits to the CNPEM campus in Campinas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With the theme \u201cPlanet Water: Ocean Culture to Face Climate Change in my Territory,\u201d National Science and Technology Week invited the population to reflect on the relationship between the marine environment, climate change, and the country&#8217;s different territories. The opening ceremony, held on Monday evening, October 20th, was attended by the Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation, Luciana Santos, and from Tuesday 21st on, an audience of more than 100,000 people was expected to visit the stands of the MCTI research units and other invited institutions.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">From the sea to the molecule: a dive into CNPEM research<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Visitors to SNCT Bras\u00edlia were able to explore the CNPEM exhibition space, which demonstrated how the Center combines biotechnology, nanotechnology, and synchrotron light techniques to understand the functioning of materials and seek new technologies to protect Brazilian terrestrial and aquatic biomes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Within the proposed theme, some research projects carried out with Sirius were listed to demonstrate its interdisciplinarity. Using techniques that employ high-brightness light, researchers and users of the Sirius stations have already been able to detect, for example, microplastics in the intestines of marine animals. In other lines of research, in turn, groups analyze rocks from different geological formations, using advanced tomography, with atomic resolution. An interactive model was present at the stand to demonstrate how Sirius works and enables these researches.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Through a &#8220;scientific fishing&#8221; activity, those who visited CNPEM in Bras\u00edlia also had the opportunity to learn about the B.A.R.B.I.E. project, in which CNPEM researchers and Ilum students created a biological filter to capture microplastics. The project name is an acronym for Bioengineered Aquatic Pollutants Removal and Biosensing through Integrated Eco-filter. The B.A.R.B.I.E. project was also responsible for <a href=\"https:\/\/cnpem.br\/en\/equipe-do-cnpem-avanca-na-disputa-global-de-inovacao-em-biologia-sintetica-igem\/\">the first victory of a Brazilian team in the Latin America iGEM Design League, in 2023<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The emergence of new pandemics and epidemics also has a strong link with environmental imbalance. In the case of global warming, for example, rising temperatures can alter habitats, forcing species to migrate and change their behavior, which alters ecological relationships and can expose humans to new infectious agents. In this scenario, the Orion project is being developed at CNPEM to enable advanced research on pathogens, as an open facility available to the national and international scientific community. At the stand in Bras\u00edlia, visitors found more information about Orion&#8217;s research lines and, in particular, saw a little about its building in an illustrative model.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Local SNCT<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As part of the National Week activities, CNPEM also made local programming available on its campus, located in Campinas. The visits, which are usually held on Wednesdays, have been extended to the other days of this week of science celebration.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From Monday to Friday, October 20th to 24th, groups of students from Campinas and the surrounding region had the opportunity to visit the building that houses Sirius&#8217; accelerators and research stations. The itinerary included a guided tour of the experimental hall of what is the largest scientific project ever built in Brazil, designed and developed by Brazilian professionals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The groups were organized into up to 40 people, in two periods, morning and afternoon, following the duration of the traditional visiting program.

Created in 2004, it reaches its 22nd edition in 2025, celebrating two decades of history in which it has already had more than one million participants throughout the country and one hundred thousand visitors per edition in Bras\u00edlia. With in-person and digital events in all states, from October 20th to 26th, SNCT promotes democratic access to knowledge, stimulates scientific curiosity, and integrates schools, universities, research institutes, museums, companies, governments, and civil society.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><div style=\"text-align:justify; margin-top:20px;\"><h2>About CNPEM<\/h2><p>The Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM) is home to a 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. CNPEM\u2019s research and development activities are carried out through its four National Laboratories: Synchrotron Light (LNLS), Biosciences (LNBio), Nanotechnology (LNNano), Biorenewables (LNBR), as well as its Technology Unit (DAT) and the Ilum School of Science \u2014 an undergraduate program in Science and Technology supported by the Ministry of Education (MEC).<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/cnpem.br\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/cnpem.br\/en\/<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simultaneous science popularization events mark this edition of SNCT with the theme of oceans and climate change From October 20th to 26th, CNPEM participated in the Brazilian National Science and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":63791,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1458,1461],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-63840","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-releases-cnpem-en-2","category-noticia-home-en-en","category-1458","category-1461","description-off"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
