Os adolescentes são considerados um grupo vulnerável à exclusão social, discriminação e estigma em relação à saúde mental, o que resulta em dificuldades na aprendizagem, comportamentos de risco, problemas de saúde física e violações dos direit...
Employer branding or employee advocacy: Striking the balance between strategy a...
Ferreira, CarolinaIn an era where authenticity has become a key value in organizational communication, balancing Employer Branding and Employee Advocacy emerges as a strategic challenge. This article explores how companies can align their institutional identity with the spontaneous voices of employees, focusing on the role of internal communication, the impact of social media, and the risks linked to unclear digital conduct poli...
Intestinal mucosal alterations parallel central demyelination and remyelination...
Ferreira, Carolina; Carvalho, Filipa; Vieira, Pedro; Alves, André; Palavra, Filipe; Almeida, Jani; Alves, Vera; Coscueta, EzequielBackground: The gut-brain axis has been increasingly recognized as a critical factor in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) pathophysiology. While its role in demyelination is well documented, gut-brain axis involvement during remyelination remains largely unexplored. Methods: Using the cuprizone (CPZ) model, which induces reversible demyelination and spontaneous remyelination upon toxin withdrawal, we investigated gut and...
Novo campus, novas relações: práticas de acolhimento e integração no ensino sup...
Andrade, Graça; Cunha, Olga; Ferreira, CarolinaO presente documento tem como objetivo abordar os vários tipos de atividades de acolhimento e integração de estudantes de primeiro ano, que são comumente implementadas nas instituições de ensino superior (IES) nacionais e estrangeiras. A necessidade destas atividades insere-se na conceção holística do sistema educativo, em que as IES devem assumir objetivos fora da esfera académica estrita, devendo promover a s...
Polyphenols: immunonutrients tipping the balance of immunometabolism in chronic...
Ferreira, Carolina; Vieira, Pedro; Sá, Helena Manuel Pina de Oliveira e; Malva, João Oliveira; Castelo-Branco, MiguelMounting evidence progressively appreciates the vital interplay between immunity and metabolism in a wide array of immunometabolic chronic disorders, both autoimmune and non-autoimmune mediated. The immune system regulates the functioning of cellular metabolism within organs like the brain, pancreas and/or adipose tissue by sensing and adapting to fluctuations in the microenvironment's nutrients, thereby reshap...
PHONLAB Project: Coimbra – Harvard. Rethinking 20th-Century Scientific Centres ...
Lopes, Quintino; Pereira, Gilberto; Ferreira, Carla; Quaresma, Helena; Ferreira, Carolina; Silva, DiogoThe aim of PHONLAB is to conduct a case study of the Coimbra Experimental Phonetics Laboratory (1936-1979). Created by Portuguese phonetician Armando de Lacerda (1902-1984), the laboratory attracted scientists from leading universities such as Harvard, Cambridge and Bonn, who sought specialist training in the use of innovative laboratory research techniques. How is it that in a country regarded as being scienti...
Preclinical assessment of an antibiotic-free cationic surfactant-based cellulos...
Calado, Rita D.A.; Mendes, Bárbara B.; Conniot, João; Ravasco, João M.J.M.; Sobral, Daniel; Ferreira, Carolina; Ferreira, Rita; Rodrigues, João CarlosSexually transmitted infections and urogenital-perinatal infections are significant health challenges owing to their asymptomatic nature, multidrug-resistant pathogens, and lack of effective vaccines. Surfactants are under investigation as potential antimicrobial agents and alternatives to traditional antibiotics. Here, we discovered that N-dodecylpyridinium bromide (C12PB), a cationic quaternary ammonium surfa...
Enterococcus spp. from chicken meat collected 20 years apart overcome multiple ...
Rebelo, Andreia; Duarte, Bárbara; Ferreira, Carolina; Mourão, Joana; Ribeiro, Sofia; Freitas, Ana R.; Coque, Teresa M.; Willems, Rob; Corander, JukkaPoultry meat has been a vehicle of antibiotic resistant bacteria and genes. Yet, the diversity of selective pressures associated with their maintenance in the poultry-production chain remains poorly explored. We evaluated the susceptibility of Enterococcus spp. from chicken meat collected 20 years apart to antibiotics, metals, acidic pH and peracetic acid-PAA. Contemporary chicken-meat samples (n = 53 batches, ...

Producing cyanobacteria to use as biostimulants
Mouga, Teresa; Simões, Fátima; Moreira, Vitória; Martins, Alice; Ferreira, Carolina; Ramos, Rute; Afonso, CléliaBy 2050, the world’s population will reach about 10 billion people, which will the need for food by about 60% more than is available today. To meet this need, new processes are emerging to allow more efficient and sustainable intensification of agriculture. In this context, the use of biostimulants has received increasing attention, due to their ability to improve plant quality and yield, stress tolerance, and/...
