Fernandes, Rita; Melo, Tiago; Marques Zé-Zé, Líbia Maria; Campos Freitas, Inês; Silva, Manuel; Dias, Eva; Santos, Nuno C.; Gouveia, Bruna R.Simple Summary: Mosquitoes can spread serious diseases like dengue and West Nile virus. On Madeira Island, two mosquito species—Aedes aegypti and Culex pipiens—are present and may pose a risk to public health. Scientists are exploring new ways to control these mosquitoes using a natural bacterium called Wolbachia, which can reduce a mosquito’s ability to transmit viruses and even lower mosquito populations. How...

Forecasting the abundance of disease vectors with deep learning
Ceia-Hasse, Ana; Sousa, Carla A.; Gouveia, Bruna R.; Capinha, CésarArboviral diseases such as dengue, Zika, chikungunya or yellow fever are a worldwide concern. The abundance of vector species plays a key role in the emergence of outbreaks of these diseases, so forecasting these numbers is fundamental in preventive risk assessment. Here we describe and demonstrate a novel approach that uses state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms to forecast disease vector abundances. Unlike...

Differential Patterns in Motivations for Practicing Sport and Their Effects on ...
Nascimento, Marcelo de Maio; Gouveia, Élvio Rúbio; Gouveia, Bruna R.; Marques, Adilson; França, Cíntia; Campos, Pedro; Martins, FranciscoThis study aims to report what motivates individuals to be physically active, to determine whether motivating factors influence physical activity (PA) levels, and whether this differs across the lifespan. This is a cross-sectional study with 498 individuals: 117 adolescents, 306 adults, and 75 older adults. PA was assessed using Baecke’s questionnaire, and motivating factors for practicing sports were investiga...
