Prof. Dr. Alessandra Sussulini participated in an interview with Giro Ambiental of TV Câmara Campinas (2023) about Dr. Luan Oliveira's work:
"Sustainable food metabolome: Discrimination of agroecological, organic, and conventional pinto beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) through the volatile organic compounds profile"
Unicamp Human Rights Recognition Award - Vladimir Herzog Institute
The Unicamp Academic Recognition Award in Human Rights (PRADH) - Vladimir Herzog Institute recognizes research committed to a dignified life, at university, master's and doctoral level, in all areas of knowledge and carried out in public teaching and research institutions with headquarters in the State of São Paulo. The reward encourages the creation and dissemination of knowledge that contributes to the protection and promotion of life and all forms of existence.
The thesis of student Luan Felipe Campos Oliveira, supervised by Prof. Dr. Alessandra Sussulini, received the award in the area of Exact Sciences, Engineering and Technology – Doctoral Research category.
In the thesis entitled "Foodomics to sustainable agriculture", Luan carried out a study to differentiate the profile of volatiles, compounds with flavor, aroma, biological and ecological activities of two different foods grown by conventional, organic and permaculture agricultural systems, a particular case of agroecology.

Between January 17th and February 15th, UNICAMP together with the Federal University of Pará (UFPA) and Santander, carried out the CAPAm program - Science & Art “Povos da Amazônia”.
In this, indigenous students, quilombolas, riverside and extractivists from different UFPA majors had the possibility of exchanging and coexistence with teachers, researchers and students from @unicamp.
The project presented by LaBIOmics, coordinated by Profa Dra. Alessandra Sussulini and developed by Dr. Julio César and doctoral student Taynara Matos, had the privilege of being selected by the Dean of Research at UNICAMP to receive Amanda Cardoso, Daiana Sena, Geovana Nascimento, Jubila Dias, Lucivan Maciel and Patrícia Mendes.
During this period, research activities, theoretical classes and visits to different UNICAMP institutes and spaces were carried out. There were moments of great exchange of knowledge and cultural enrichment.
Thank you and congratulations, guys, for accepting the challenge; have a good comeback! Thank you also to all the students, professors and staff who received us and showed their spaces of action with so much enthusiasm!
During December 10 to December 15, 2022 occurred the 3rd Iberoamerican Conference on Mass Spectrometry that took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
In this conference, LaBIOmics was present and awarded:
Taynara received Nico Nibbering Student Travel Award (Again!!)
She presented her work named: "Insights to the differentiation of Banisteriopsis caapi varieties in ayahuasca samples using UHPLC-MS".
Congratulations, girl!
Webinar by INCTBio
Every month, INCTBio presents a Webinar with renowned researchers from Brazil and abroad. On the 20/09/2022 Profa Alessandra Sussulini will present the lecture "The power of "omics" in the study of psychiatric diseases and their treatments".
It will be necessary to register in advance with Prof. Dr. José Alberto Fracassi da Silva via email: fracassi@unicamp.br
The link for access will be sent to subscribers directly by Prof. Fracassi.
The presence will be counted towards the fulfillment of the mandatory Seminars by the IQ/UNICAMP Post-Graduate students.
During 27th August and 2nd September occurred the 2022 International Mass Spectrometry Conference. The event was held on Maastricht, Netherlands.
In this conference, LaBIOmics was present and doubly awarded:
Luan received Journal of Mass Spectrometry Award
Taynara received Nico Nibbering Student Travel Award
Luan presented his work named: "THUNDERSTORMS: CLOUD ELECTRIFICATION OR SPONTANEUS WATER IONIZATION? "
Taynara presented her work named: " DIFFERENTIATION OF AYAHUASCA SAMPLES ACCORDING TO ORIGIN AND RELIGIOUS GROUPS USING MULTIVARIATE STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF LC-MS DATA".
Congratulations, guys!
