INTERNACIONALIZAÇÃO E INTEGRAÇÃO ACADÊMICA: RELATO DE EXPERIÊNCIA DA PARTICIPAÇÃO DE ESTUDANTES ESTRANGEIRAS EM PESQUISA SOBRE EDUCAÇÃO E SAÚDE PRISIONAL
The internationalization of higher education is a relevant movement for the development of education, research, and extension. This phenomenon is characterized by global interconnectedness in terms of promoting the formation of professionals capable of working in different cultural contexts. Internationalization can take different forms, one of which is student mobility programs that promote cultural and scientific exchanges through study abroad experiences. Objective: To describe the experience of students from the University of Santa Cruz do Sul (UNISC) in receiving and accompanying exchange students from Belgium and Norway. Method: This is an experiential report of the activities carried out over a period of four weeks, between July and August 2022, when two foreign students were received at UNISC. The activities were shared among members of the International Federation of Medical Students' Associations in Brazil and the Center for Studies and Research on the Prison System. Results: Open lectures were delivered by Brazilian students, faculty members, and the visiting students on healthcare systems, public health policies, and prison systems in the countries involved. In addition, visits were made to local prisons for oral swab collection for hepatitis C testing, analysis of biological samples, support for COVID-19 diagnosis at TecnoUnisc, and visits to other research and extension projects. Conclusion: The partnership between research and extension projects proved to be an incentive for promoting academic activities and student mobility, providing unique opportunities for sharing information and international experiences.A internacionalização do ensino superior é um movimento relevante para o desenvolvimento da educação, da pesquisa e da extensão. Esse fenômeno é caracterizado pela interconexão global no que diz respeito ao impulsionamento da formação de profissionais capazes de atuar em diferentes contextos culturais. A internacionalização pode assumir diferentes formas, sendo uma delas os programas de mobilização estudantil, que promovem trocas culturais e científicas em processos de intercâmbio. Objetivo: Descrever a experiência vivenciada por estudantes da Universidade de Santa Cruz do Sul (UNISC) na recepção e acompanhamento de intercambistas da Bélgica e Noruega. Método: Relato de experiência das atividades desenvolvidas durante 4 semanas, compreendidas entre julho e agosto de 2022, período em que foram recebidas na UNISC duas estudantes estrangeiras. As atividades foram compartilhadas entre os membros da Federação Internacional das Associações dos Estudantes de Medicina do Brasil e do Núcleo de Estudos e Pesquisas com Foco no Sistema Prisional. Resultados: Foram realizadas aulas abertas apresentadas por estudantes e docentes brasileiros e, também, pelas visitantes sobre sistemas de saúde, políticas públicas de saúde e sistemas prisionais dos países envolvidos. Ainda, foram realizadas visitas aos presídios da região para a coleta de swabs orais para testagem de hepatite C, análise de amostras biológicas, apoio à realização do diagnóstico da covid-19 no TecnoUnisc e visita a outros projetos de pesquisa e extensão. Conclusão: A parceria entre projetos de pesquisa e de extensão mostrou-se um incentivo à promoção de atividades acadêmicas mobilização estudantil, proporcionando oportunidades únicas de compartilhamento de informações e vivências internacionais
Performance and methane emissions of Nellore steers grazing tropical pasture supplemented with lipid sources
ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of lipid sources on voluntary intake, digestibility, performance, and CH4 emission of Nellore steers grazing Brachiaria brizantha cv. Xaraés forage in the dry season. Forty-five Nellore steers with average weight of 442±34 kg were alloted into one of the five treatments: without additional fat; with palm oil; with linseed oil; with protected fat; and with whole soybeans. The supplements were provided daily and quantities were adjusted to 1% of body weight and diets were formulated in accordance with the Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System. The experimental design was completely randomized with five treatments and two replications. There were no effects on dry matter, organic matter, and neutral detergent fiber intake with the inclusion of lipids in the diet. The neutral detergent fiber showed decreased digestibility in animals receiving linseed oil and palm oil treatments compared with animals receiving the diet without additional fat. The linseed oil treatment reduced CH4 emissions by 38% when expressed in mg/d/kg BW and tended to reduce the emission in g/d/kg BW0.75. Lipid sources did not affect the weight gain of the animals. The intake and performance of grazing Nellore steers supplemented at 1% body weight with lipid sources were not modified. However, fiber digestibility was reduced with palm or linseed oil addition. Linseed oil reduced enteric CH4 emissions. Linseed oil has the potential to reduce enteric CH4 emissions in continuous tropical grazing systems based on B. brizantha grass
