Partnerships of NScTI

NScTI Citrus' partnerships have proved to be essential for its progress. Acting in a more informal way, these partnerships originate essentially in the network of collaborations that its members have in several fronts of action. It is important to highlight among these partnerships:

Citrosuco Paulista, supporting mainly the experimental network of citrus within the State of São Paulo.

Due to the thematic affinity, NIST Citrus has closer contact with the National Institute of Science and Technology of Molecular Entomology (Subject: RNAi technology in Diaphorina citri) (http://www.inctem.bioqmed.ufrj.br/index.php/pt/) and the National Institute of Science and Technology for the Biorational Control of Insect Pests and Phytopathogens (Subject: New molecules in the control of citrus diseases) (https://www.cbip.ufscar.br).

Postgraduate courses, in partnership with NScTI Citrus, allow for the use of infrastructure, resources, and topics for the development of training at the undergraduate or graduate level.

In addition to its scientific and technological focus, NScTI Citrus trains human resources at all levels through postgraduate courses that its researchers participate in, as well as scientific initiation scholarships, technological development scholarships, and postdoctoral studies scholarships (from Capes, CNPq, and FAPESP).
