(PPGNAFPF) Graduate Program in Nutrition, Physical Activity and Phenotypic Plasticity

(PPGNAFPF) Post-graduation “Nutrition, Physical Activity and Phenotypic Plasticity”

Program

The Post-graduation “Nutrition, Physical Activity and Phenotypic Plasticity” (PPGNAFPF) is a thematic and multidisciplinary program inserted in the area of Nutrition (CAPES), Brazil. The PPGNAFPF is composed by two areas of investigation: (1) Experimental and clinical studies on phenotypic plasticity; (2) Environmental modulator factors of phenotypic plasticity.

(1) Experimental and clinical basis of phenotypic plasticity

Description:

To study, in a transdisciplinary way, the association between the critical periods of development and the appearance of metabolic diseases in adult life. To describe the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the early onset of diseases in adult life associated with nutritional and pharmacological disorders occurring in the perinatal period.

Lines of research:

A) Biological mechanisms of the phenotypic plasticity

Description:

To study the physiological basis of phenotypic plasticity for the understanding of the mechanisms underlying the early onset of metabolic diseases and eating behaviour disorders.

B) Nutritional status and the risk of non-communicable diseases

Description:

To study the nutritional conditions in humans and experimental animal models and the biomedical implications of the early onset of non-communicable diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes type II, chronic lung disease, allergies, cancer, cognitive deficits, osteoporosis, sarcopenia and behavioural disorders.

(2) Environmental modulator factors of phenotypic plasticity

Description:

To study the probable consequences of the incidence of nutritional factors, physical activity and others during vulnerable periods of the growth and development trajectory from fetal life to adulthood. To study the influence of environmental factors, active lifestyle and balanced nutrition, as intervention mechanisms modulating the effects of phenotypic plasticity reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases.

Line of Research:

C) Nutrition and Physical Activity during development

Description:

To study the interaction between nutritional status and environmental factors on performance in humans and experimental models. To describe the re-programming role of the physical training in organisms submitted to eating disorders. To study the modulating effects of the consumption of different types of diet and/or of the engagement in physical activity programs during the peri-gestational period and the repercussions on the growth trajectory of the offspring.

De acordo com as normas da CAPES relacionadas a autoavaliação dos Programas de Pós-Graduação, o PPGNAFPF instituiu no ano de 2015 sua Comissão de Autoavaliação, que juntamente com a Coordenação do Curso conduz discussões e ações avaliativa sistemática.

Nesse quadriênio a Comissão de Autoavaliação esta sendo composta pelos seguintes membros:

Profa. Ligia Monteiro Galindo - membro permanente do colegiado;

Profa. Mariane Cajubá de Britto Lira - membro permanente do colegiado;

Prof. Thyago Moreira de Queiroz - membro permanente do colegiado;

Profa. Isabeli Lins Pinheiro - membro permanente do colegiado;

Daniel Melo de Freitas - técnico administrativo;

Thayna Menezes Santos - discente do Mestrado;

Rayssa Franciely Temudo dos Santos - discente do Mestrado;

Marcia Maria da Silva - egresso;

Jéssica Gonzaga Pereira - egresso.

Para tal estruturação utilizamos os documentos norteadores:

- Documentos Norteador CAPES;

- Documentos Norteador UFPE.
