Supercentenarians, against all odds. They didn’t follow special diets and had limited access to medical care, yet reached extreme old age.
Scientists in Brazil are searching their genomes for clues to this resilience. My latest story for @Nature: nature.com/articles/d4158…

Susan Monarez stood up for science — and was fired
“I always challenge the status quo because that’s what you do in science,” Monarez says. “You challenge it to try to do better, but you don’t compromise your moral & scientific integrity for expediency.”

Um grande motivo de orgulho para a ciência brasileira. O pesquisador Luciano Moreira entrou na lista das dez pessoas que mais ajudaram a transformar o mundo científico em 2025. O reconhecimento veio da revista Nature, uma das mais prestigiadas publicações acadêmicas do mundo.
Luciano Moreira é pesquisador da Fiocruz e comanda, em Curitiba, uma biofábrica que produz diariamente milhões de ovos de mosquitos incapazes de transmitir dengue, zika e chikungunya. Esses mosquitos são depois levados à natureza e, ao reproduzirem com outros mosquitos, geram insetos inofensivos à saúde humana.
Em algumas cidades brasileiras onde essa tecnologia está sendo usada, os casos de dengue caíram expressivamente. Isso só é possível porque contamos com instituições de renome internacional, como a Fiocruz. Com investimentos sólidos em ciência e forte cooperação em pesquisa. E com pesquisadores comprometidos como Luciano Moreira.
