Universal Design for Learning in higher education: mapping awareness initiatives
Maia, Marisa; Santos, PaulaIn response to the increasing diversity of students in Higher Education, there have been some advances in promoting environments where everyone can learn. One of the emerging approaches is Universal Design for Learning - a framework that improves and maximizes the teaching and learning process by designing accessible, inclusive and flexible learning experiences, regardless of students' individual attributes. Or...
Inclusive Higher Education for people with intellectual and/or developmental di...
Maia, Marisa; Santos, Paula; Espe-Sherwindt, MarilynDespite the recognition of the positive impact of Higher Education on quality of life, there is a vulnerable group that continues to have no access to this level of education: people with intellectual and/or developmental disability. However, the obstacles imposed on this population can be mitigated through the creation of inclusive university programs. Based on the perceptions of the people with intellectual a...
Integration of Ethnomathematics in geometry teaching: cultural elements and ben...
Gomes Sá, Carla Isabel; Maia, MarisaEthnomathematics challenges the traditional view of mathematics, linking it to culture and recognizing it as a cultural construction that takes into account the practices, values and needs of different social groups.This study explores ethnomathematics as an innovative and transformative approach that can be integrated into the teaching of geometry in elementary school.Thus, this narrative literature review aim...
A metabolome analysis and the immunity of Phlomis purpurea against Phytophthora...
Neves, Dina; Figueiredo, Andreia; Maia, Marisa; Laczko, Endre; Pais, Maria Salomé; Cravador, AlfredoPhlomis purpurea grows spontaneously in the southern Iberian Peninsula, namely in cork oak (Quercus suber) forests. In a previous transcriptome analysis, we reported on its immunity against Phytophthora cinnamomi. However, little is known about the involvement of secondary metabolites in the P. purpurea defense response. It is known, though, that root exudates are toxic to this pathogen. To understand the invol...

Untargeted metabolomics reveals antidepressant effects in a marine photosynthet...
Duarte, Bernardo; Feijão, Eduardo; Cruz de Carvalho, Ricardo; Duarte, Irina A.; Marques, Ana Patrícia; Maia, Marisa; Hertzog, Jasmine; Matos, Ana RitaThe increased use of antidepressants, along with their increased occurrence in aquatic environments, is of concern for marine organisms. Although these pharmaceutical compounds have been shown to negatively affect marine diatoms, their mode of action in these non-target, single-cell phototrophic organisms is yet unknown. Using a Fourier-transform ion cyclotron-resonance mass spectrometer (FT-ICR-MS) we evaluate...
Unraveling the metabolome of grapevine through FT-ICR-MS : from nutritional val...
Maia, MarisaGrapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) is one of most important fruit crops in the world due to its numerous food products, namely fresh and dried table grapes, wine and intermediate products, with a high economic importance worldwide. Concerning nutritional value, grapes are highly studied and a great diversity of secondary bioactive metabolites has already been identified. However, an important grapevine by-product, a...
Integrating metabolomics and targeted gene expression to uncover potential biom...
Maia, Marisa; Ferreira, António E.N.; Nascimento, Rui; Monteiro, Filipa; Traquete, Francisco; Marques, Ana P.; Cunha, Jorge; Eiras-Dias, José E.Vitis vinifera, one of the most cultivated fruit crops, is susceptible to several diseases particularly caused by fungus and oomycete pathogens. In contrast, other Vitis species (American, Asian) display different degrees of tolerance/resistance to these pathogens, being widely used in breeding programs to introgress resistance traits in elite V. vinifera cultivars. Secondary metabolites are important players i...

Uncovering markers for downy mildew resistance in grapevine through mass spectr...
Maia, Marisa; Ferreira, António E.N.; Marques, Ana P.; Figueiredo, Joana; Freire, Ana Ponces; Cordeiro, Carlos; Figueiredo, Andreia; Silva, Marta SousaO míldio é uma ameaça importante à indústria vitivinícola e o desenvolvimento de híbridos entre Vitis vinifera e Vitis spp. selvagens, resistentes à doença, é uma estratégia promissora no combate a esta doença. A descoberta de marcadores metabólicos é essencial. Neste trabalho pretendemos acelerar o processo de seleção das características de resistência ao míldio utilizando metabolómica baseada em espectrometri...
