The subject, besides fulfilling the primary aim of the “gstrictu senso”h post-graduation of training researchers, combines the need for stimulation, starting at a brilliant idea (the Concept of Intellectual Capital, where the knowledge or creativity can be converted into economic value) up to the development of products, and their branding and patenting. To present the postgraduate students the understanding, skills and attitudes which must be developed to enable getting a brand and patent, from the conception of an idea – To stimulate the creativity of the postgraduate student in the creation of innovative products, which could become innovations with their institutional domain guaranteed.

Orlando de Castro e Silva J_nior, Eduardo Guimar_es Hourneaux de Moura, Wanderley Marques Bernardo 34 MGT5773 4 Concepts which involve the proposed subject: – Idea: The word derives from the Greek idea or eidea, etiological root is eidos _ image. Its significance, since its origin, implies a controversy between the theory of emission (Plato) and that of intromission (Aristotle). At the center of the controversy is the concept of the representation of the real (reality). For Plato, the idea we have from something proves the main principal, of the _intelligible world_, which constituted the Universal Idea, a category which is the basis of his philosophy, idealism. So, the idea of it is a projection of knowledge: upon seeing it, the eyes, emitting rays of light, project the image of the same thing, which exists within us as the universal principle (emission). This doctrine is designed by _idealism_. For Aristotle, the idea of the thing comes from sense experience, from the _world of contingent phenomena_: the things emit copies of themselves, through the light, copies assimilated by senses and interpretated by innate or acquired knowledge (intromission), a doctrine that founds the concept of _realism_. The (brilliant) idea is the basis of everything (four steps: preparation, incubation, illumination and verification). Any time lost after a brilliant idea could be responsible for inhibiting the motivation which created idea, or even raise doubts whether the brilliant idea is really good or not. – Intellectual property: refers, in the broad sense, to the creations of human spirit and to the protective rights of the interests of the creators over their creations. – Trademark: Is a visually perceptible sign capable of distinguishing the goods or services of a company, especially in relation to other competitors. – Patent: is a title of temporary ownership over an invention of utility model, granted by the State. With this right, the inventor has the right to prevent third-parties, without their consent, of producing, using, putting for sale, selling or importing the subject of their patent and/or process or product obtained directly by a process patented by him. _Assessment by: above 75% presence in lesson, presentation of seminars with pre-determined topics, performance and interest demonstrated during the discussions. http://www.fm.usp.br/en/portal/

Despite unprecedented efforts to control malaria, this disease still represents a major public health problem, particularly in Africa. Challenges such as the search for more sensitive point-of-care methods, resistance to antimalarials and to insecticides, strategies to measure transmission, understanding of the immunity and decreases lethality are challenges for the control and elimination. Malaria is the most widespread parasitic disease, putting at risk about 3.3 billion people worldwide, with 198 million cases and 584,000 deaths, especially in children under five years of age and pregnant women. Leishmaniasis and arboviruses such as dengue are among the vector-borne diseases considered neglected by the World Health Organization. Neglected tropical diseases are a group of communicable diseases occrurring in tropical and subtropical conditions in 149 countries and affect more than one billion people, at the cost of billions of dollars each year. They affect mainly populations that live in poverty, in contact with vectors of infectious agents. About 450 million people in sub-Saharan Africa are at risk of contracting tropical diseases. However, according to the WHO, they also affect Latin America, the Middle East and Asia and can emerge in other regions. Leishmaniasis accounts for 1.5 to 2 million new cases per year, with an average lethality of 7%, mainly due to the visceral type. In recent years there has been a resurgence of different arboviruses, among them dengue, chikungunya and Zika virus, whose ability to adapt to different vectors had an impact on the geographical expansion of these diseases. Although most cases present benignly, these arboviruses can occur with severe manifestations. The risk of transmission of these diseases is not limited to populations living in areas at risk, but also to travelers, due to globalization and ease of displacement, thus increasing the concern of worldwide dissemination. The extent of these diseases, coupled with the complex mechanisms of the agent-host-vector relationship in the different phases of the transmission chain, suggests that it is appropriate for academic and public health institutions to devote themselves to the study of the variables involved in their evolution. Thus, the knowledge related to the agents, the hosts, the vectors and the interaction between them, is fundamental to draw efficient strategies of control. In this context, the main challenges are the critical and accurate evaluation of parasitological and molecular diagnostic methods; the immunological mechanisms involved in the etiologic agent-man-vector relationship; the genetic mechanisms of drug resistance; the importance of travel medicine, in order to guide and prevent the risk of infection. It is proposed here a course at a postgraduate level that will provide students with the conditions to develop a critical vision, that arises from the knowledge of challenges, proposals for control and research perspectives in the related field. Training teachers and researchers to develop research on malaria and the main neglected tropical diseases, with an approach in epidemiology and clinical-laboratory diagnosis, encouraging and stimulating the critical thinking related to the knowledge in these diseases.

The subject of the body is classic in the Human and Social Sciences with contributions from different disciplinary fields such as Anthropology, History and Sociology. In the country, the development of this area of __research and the consequent theoretical-conceptual consolidation gained momentum starting in the 1950s. Collective Health, as a field of knowledge and practices, has fostered the constitution of a growing and rich dialogue between the Health and humanities. In this sense, we present the proposal of a discipline on the body proposing the articulation of the disciplinary contributions of Anthropology, History and Sociology in the conformation of the thematic, at the same time, biological and cultural, related to the own social construction of the person and its relevance in the Processes conformed in the care, in the therapeutic practices, in the aesthetic interventions, in the suffering and the pain in face of the processes of illness and in the perception of the body in face of normative processes. The discipline has a theoretical and applied character, allowing to study the articulations of the subject under the referential of the disciplinary fields marked with its applications in the recent researches in the field of health, in addition to enabling, even if still basic, in the critical and reasoned reading of the Productions in the field of health that make use of the mentioned references. 1. Discuss the relationships between body, health, illness and care understood in their symbolic, social and historically constructed dimension; 2. Placing the studies on the body in the field of Human and Social Sciences, starting with the classic nature and culture dichotomy and inserting the contemporary critical debate of this tradition; 3. Contextualize the question of body and identity in the consumer society; 4.

Studies of the female genital tract in health and disease are being reported at a very rapid rate. New findings that enhance our understanding of the mechanisms leading to disorders in this area are published almost daily. Whereas previously the predominant focus in infections affecting women was on identification of the causative microorganism and finding the most effective drug for treatment, there is now a much greater appreciation of the role of host-microorganism interactions that promote well being or, conversely, that lead to disease. This has led to a concomitant increased understanding that all women are not identical nor will benefit from the same standard prevention or treatment protocol. There is a great need, currently not effectively met in a many cases, to appreciate genetic, immune, hormonal, microbiological and biochemical differences between women and to modify how we define disease and provide the most effective treatment on an individual basis. Development of increasingly sensitive methods to define the composition of the genital tract microbiome by gene amplification technology, coupled with a greater appreciation of host-microbe interactions, has led to a fundamental change in our understanding of the mechanisms that promote a healthy local environment. This is paralleled by a concomitant increase in our knowledge of how specific alterations promote genital tract pathology. The objective of this course is to provide the most up-to-date information on bacterial, immunological, genetic, and biochemical factors operative in the female genital tract and how their interactions influence health and disease. Medical School (FM) São Paulo, Pinheiros campus The course will focus on the following topics: 1. What is a normal vaginal microbiome? The latest findings on the composition of the vaginal microbiota in girls, adolescents and pre- and post-menopausal women will be presented. The role of individual components of the vaginal microbiota in maintaining a physiological environment also will be addressed. 2. How does the composition of the microbiome influences female reproductive tract health? Alterations in the microbiome in women with vulvovaginal candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis, trichomoniasis, chlamydial, human papillomavirus and human immunodeficiency virus infections and how they influence disease will be detailed. 3. How does a womans genetic make-up influence her likelihood to develop specific alterations leading to genital tract disease. Specifically, recent studies on the role of variations (polymorphisms) in genes involved in anti-microbial defense or in the magnitude and direction of immune responses will be discussed and their influence on susceptibility to various infectious and non-infectious disorders affecting women. 4. What is the contribution of epithelial cells in the female genital tract to local immunity? It is now apparent that vaginal and cervical epithelial cells contribute to immune defense by the spontaneous or induced release of many compounds that are toxic for different groups of microorganisms or that activate a productive immune response. The range of compounds released by epithelial cells, the specific conditions under which they are produced and how they contribute to genital tract health will be discussed. 5. What is the current state of knowledge of genetic, immune, microbiological and environmental factors that contribute to development of female genital tract malignancies  ovarian, fallopian tube, endometrial, cervical and vaginal cancer? Is it possible to predict the occurrence or relapse of these malignancies? 6. What is the current state of knowledge of the causes, diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis? 7. What is the current state of knowledge of the causes and treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome? Is there any relationship with microbiome? 8. Metabolic syndrome and microbiome: what is the link? 9. What are heat shock proteins and how do they influence health or disease? What is their role in womens health? Classes 1) The human microbioma and the vaginal microbioma. 2) Microbioma and reproductive health infections. 3) Genetic polymorphism and womens health. 4) Autophagy. 5) Malignant genital neoplasias. 6) Endometriosis: the state of the art . 7) Polycistic ovarian syndrome: what is new? 8) Heat shock proteins . 9) Enviromental and sexual factors influencing HIV transmission . 10) Reproductive genital infections during pregnancy: mother and baby consequences. 11) Immunization: where are we today? 12) Society, women, heath and disease. 13) Metabolic syndrome and microbiome.
