    The pandemic caused by the coronavirus has brought numerous challenges for higher education, especially in health courses due to the various practical activities with patients, increasing the risk of contamination. The objective of the work was to report the training process in biosafety in dental care in the face of a pandemic scenario and risk of contamination for SARS-CoV-2 and to evaluate its impact on the resumption of clinical practice. From the biosafety protocol built collectively for clinical care, remote training was applied to all 398 students and professors of the Faculty of Dentistry using the virtual environment and several different online resources. At the end, a questionnaire was applied to all participants, and to students from the last period, also practical training before returning to service. 96% participated in the activities and reported it as important. The students from the last period felt safer to return to care and were able to notice an advance regarding the biosafety procedures to be used. The process of training and updating the biosafety protocols for responsible dental care in a pandemic phase by COVID-19 was important, since it reduced anxiety and mobilized the integration of professors and students of the Dentistry course around the search for knowledge for safe dental care.

Education technology, E-Learning.A pandemia causada pelo coronavírus trouxe inúmeros desafios para o ensino superior, principalmente nos cursos da área da saúde devido às diversas atividades práticas com os pacientes, aumentando o risco de contaminação. O objetivo do trabalho foi relatar o processo de capacitação em biossegurança em assistência odontológica frente a um cenário de pandemia e risco de contaminação por SARS-CoV-2 e avaliar seu impacto na retomada da prática clínica. A partir do protocolo de biossegurança construído coletivamente para o atendimento clínico, foi aplicado o treinamento à distância a todos os 398 alunos e professores da Faculdade de Odontologia utilizando o ambiente virtual e diversos recursos online. Ao final, foi aplicado um questionário a todos os participantes, e aos alunos do último período, também o treinamento prático antes do retorno ao serviço. 96% participaram das atividades e as relataram como importantes. Os alunos do último período sentiram-se mais seguros para retornar aos cuidados e puderam perceber um avanço quanto aos procedimentos de biossegurança a serem utilizados. O processo de treinamento e atualização dos protocolos de biossegurança para atendimento odontológico responsável em fase de pandemia pelo COVID-19 foi importante, pois reduziu a ansiedade e mobilizou a integração de professores e alunos do curso de Odontologia em torno da busca de conhecimentos para atendimento odontológico seguro.

    Esse trabalho tem como objetivo mostrar o processo de reorganização curricular no Ceará através da experiência inovadora do Núcleo de Trabalho, Pesquisa e Práticas Sociais (NTPPS), que está sendo implementado no ensino médio de escolas públicas do Estado, através da Secretaria de Educação do Estado do Ceará (SEDUC), e que vem fortalecendo o aprendizado direcionado ao desenvolvimento de pesquisas, mas também trabalha as competências socioemocionais dos alunos, o autoconhecimento, o protagonismo, a sua relação com a família e a vida em sociedade. A metodología utilizada foi de natureza  qualitativa, onde os métodos aplicados são a entrevista e a observação.

    Pervasive gaps in Amazonian ecological research

    Biodiversity loss is one of the main challenges of our time,1,2 and attempts to address it require a clear un derstanding of how ecological communities respond to environmental change across time and space.3,4 While the increasing availability of global databases on ecological communities has advanced our knowledge of biodiversity sensitivity to environmental changes,5–7 vast areas of the tropics remain understudied.8–11 In the American tropics, Amazonia stands out as the world’s most diverse rainforest and the primary source of Neotropical biodiversity,12 but it remains among the least known forests in America and is often underrepre sented in biodiversity databases.13–15 To worsen this situation, human-induced modifications16,17 may elim inate pieces of the Amazon’s biodiversity puzzle before we can use them to understand how ecological com munities are responding. To increase generalization and applicability of biodiversity knowledge,18,19 it is thus crucial to reduce biases in ecological research, particularly in regions projected to face the most pronounced environmental changes. We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple or ganism groups in a machine learning model framework to map the research probability across the Brazilian Amazonia, while identifying the region’s vulnerability to environmental change. 15%–18% of the most ne glected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050. This means that unless we take immediate action, we will not be able to establish their current status, much less monitor how it is changing and what is being lostinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Local hydrological conditions influence tree diversity and composition across the Amazon basin

    Tree diversity and composition in Amazonia are known to be strongly determined by the water supplied by precipitation. Nevertheless, within the same climatic regime, water availability is modulated by local topography and soil characteristics (hereafter referred to as local hydrological conditions), varying from saturated and poorly drained to well-drained and potentially dry areas. While these conditions may be expected to influence species distribution, the impacts of local hydrological conditions on tree diversity and composition remain poorly understood at the whole Amazon basin scale. Using a dataset of 443 1-ha non-flooded forest plots distributed across the basin, we investigate how local hydrological conditions influence 1) tree alpha diversity, 2) the community-weighted wood density mean (CWM-wd) – a proxy for hydraulic resistance and 3) tree species composition. We find that the effect of local hydrological conditions on tree diversity depends on climate, being more evident in wetter forests, where diversity increases towards locations with well-drained soils. CWM-wd increased towards better drained soils in Southern and Western Amazonia. Tree species composition changed along local soil hydrological gradients in Central-Eastern, Western and Southern Amazonia, and those changes were correlated with changes in the mean wood density of plots. Our results suggest that local hydrological gradients filter species, influencing the diversity and composition of Amazonian forests. Overall, this study shows that the effect of local hydrological conditions is pervasive, extending over wide Amazonian regions, and reinforces the importance of accounting for local topography and hydrology to better understand the likely response and resilience of forests to increased frequency of extreme climate events and rising temperatures

    Estimating the global conservation status of more than 15,000 Amazonian tree species

    Estimates of extinction risk for Amazonian plant and animal species are rare and not often incorporated into land-use policy and conservation planning. We overlay spatial distribution models with historical and projected deforestation to show that at least 36% and up to 57% of all Amazonian tree species are likely to qualify as globally threatened under International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List criteria. If confirmed, these results would increase the number of threatened plant species on Earth by 22%. We show that the trends observed in Amazonia apply to trees throughout the tropics, and we predict thatmost of the world’s >40,000 tropical tree species now qualify as globally threatened. A gap analysis suggests that existing Amazonian protected areas and indigenous territories will protect viable populations of most threatened species if these areas suffer no further degradation, highlighting the key roles that protected areas, indigenous peoples, and improved governance can play in preventing large-scale extinctions in the tropics in this century
