Environmental licensing constitutes a central instrument of the Brazilian National Environmental Policy, acting preventively in the assessment and mitigation of impacts resulting from human activities. In this context, civil liability and environmental reparation mechanisms assume a complementary role, especially considering the difficulty of fully ...

Rapid Fabrication of Self‐Propelled and Steerable Magnetic Microcatheters for Precision Medicine
A rapid Joule heating fabrication method for the production of self‐propelling, adaptive microcatheters, with tunable stiffness and integrated microfluidic channels is presented. Demonstrated through three microrobotic designs, including a steerable guiding catheter, an untethered wave‐crawling TubeBot, and a distal‐end propelled microcatheter, it was ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Environmental licensing in Brazil: rules and principles
With the enactment of Law No. 6,938/81, the country formally began to have a National Environmental Policy, a type of legal framework for all public environmental policies to be developed by the federative entities. Before that, each State or Municipality had the autonomy to elect its political guidelines regarding the environment independently ...

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and
