    It is a descriptive-exploratory study with a qualitative approach that has the objective of analyzing the health promotion in training nurses. The setting of the research was two nursing undergraduate courses in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The results show that both schools used settings favorable to a health promotion approach in this training. They anchor this approach in the need to provide students experiences of learning from an immersion in the reality of professional life. It is prevalent on formation a tension between good educational pratices for health promotion were revealed those become into the daily of the service and practices that arrest the subjects on their ways of thinking. It is concluded that health promotion is recognized as a political decision in nursing education, although this is yet incipient and has a mixed theoretical formulation, indicating the need to increase opportunities for conceptual and operational discussion.Este estudio exploratorio descriptivo y cualitativo, analizó la promoción de la salud en la formación de los enfermeros. Los escenarios de investigación fueron dos facultades de Enfermería del Estado de Minas Gerais (Brasil). Los resultados indicaron que las escuelas han practicado aprendizaje favorable al abordaje de la promoción de salud, fundamentada en la necesidad de propiciar experiencias a partir de la inmersión en la vida profesional. Prevalecieron tensiones entre las buenas prácticas de enseñanza para la promoción de la salud, reveladas como las que acontecieron en el cotidiano de los servicios, y las prácticas que aprisionaron a los sujetos en sus modos de pensar e de actuar. Se concluyó que la promoción de la salud fue considerada como decisión política para cambios en la formación del enfermero, a pesar de esa incorporación ser incipiente e heterogénea, fue evidente la necesidad de ampliar los espacios de discusión conceptual y operacional.Estudo descritivo-exploratório de abordagem qualitativa com o objetivo de analisar a promoção da saúde na formação do enfermeiro.

Os resultados indicaram que as duas escolas utilizam espaços de aprendizagem favoráveis à abordagem da promoção da saúde na formação. Ancora-se esta abordagem na necessidade de propiciar aos discentes experiências de aprendizagem com base na imersão na realidade da vida profissional. Na formação, prevalecem tensões entre boas práticas de ensino para a promoção da saúde, reveladas como aquelas que acontecem no cotidiano dos serviços, e práticas que aprisionam os sujeitos em seus modos de pensar e fazer. Concluiu-se que a promoção da saúde é tomada como decisão política para mudança na formação do enfermeiro, embora esta incorporação seja incipiente e heterogênea quanto à formulação teórica, indicando a necessidade de ampliação dos espaços de discussão conceitual e operacional

    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

We integrate ecological community metadata of 7,694 sampling sites for multiple organism 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 neglected areas in ecological research are expected to experience severe climate or land use changes by 2050.
