AREAS OF CONCENTRATION:
• Preventive medicine
• Investigative Medicine
• Inputs for the health area
RESEARCH LINES:
DEVELOPMENT OF VACCINES, DIAGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC METHODS
Development of inputs, processes and platforms that aim to promote the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of diseases of national interest. The projects related to this line seek to reduce dependence on imported products and collaborating to build a health technology base in southern Brazil.
DRUGS AND MEDICATIONS
From new pharmaceutical forms such as nano carriers as well as natural and synthetic sources of new drugs, the related projects to this line aim to advance in the knowledge of technological and nature potentialities in order to obtain alternatives for infectious parasitic diseases among others.
ENVIRONMENTAL AND OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH
The research line of Environmental and Occupational Health aims to encompass projects that investigate the relationship between the environment (external, internal and work) and determinants of health, well-being and quality of life. Also included are studies on the influence of environmental and occupational factors on morbidity/mortality and on the relevance of a healthy environment to the maintenance of quality of life.
STUDY OF CHRONIC NON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASES
It develops researches in order to study the picture of the Chronic Non-communicable Diseases and their risk factors. It presents a theoretical and analytical framework for its social determination, oriented towards public health actions. It also investigates epidemiological aspects to the health of the population in general, and, especially, vulnerable groups.
BASIC ATTENTION AND AGGREGATES TO THE HEALTH OF THE POPULATION
It develops research on acute infectious or non-infectious diseases. It studies the epidemiology of pandemic, epidemic and endemic diseases and their risk factors. It investigates social determinants and the vulnerability of health promotion. It develops health education surveys; prevention and protection; nutrition of populations; maternal and perinatal health; family planning; immunizations; distribution of medicines; control, health management and evaluation of health services
HOSPITAL INFECTION AND ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE
Study of infectious diseases in which the causative agent is acquired in the hospital environment and that clinically manifest in the patient during its stay or even after discharge. The developed studies are based on the knowledge of factors that are associated with pathogens, host and environment. Though in a more pragmatic way, the impact of the infection on both the patient and the public health is also studied, as well as items related to the cost-effectiveness of new control strategies such as the implementation of protocols for the rational use of antimicrobials, disinfection and antisepsis procedures, diagnostic methods, measures that monitor and control infections. Regarding antimicrobial resistance, the studies are not restricted to hospital infections but also cover those infections acquired in the community: antimicrobial resistance rate, resistance mechanisms, biological cost and fitness of resistant pathogens, dissemination of resistant pathogens, horizontal transmission of associated to resistance genes and the evolution of the resistance against selective pressure by antimicrobial consumption.
STUDY OF PARASITIC INFECT DISEASES
Infectious parasitic diseases are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in our country, especially in people and places with greater social fragility. In this line there is a development of projects that seek to deepen the knowledge regarding prevention, diagnosis and treatment of these diseases.

AGENDA 2030 / 17 ODS
Em 2015, representantes dos 193 Estados-membros da ONU reafirmaram que a erradicação da pobreza em todas as suas formas e dimensões, incluindo a pobreza extrema, é o maior desafio global e um requisito indispensável para o desenvolvimento sustentável.
Ao adotarem o documento “Transformando o Nosso Mundo: A Agenda 2030 para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável” todos países comprometeram-se a tomar medidas ousadas e transformadoras para promover o desenvolvimento sustentável nos próximos 15 anos.
A Agenda 2030 é um plano de ação para as pessoas, o planeta e a prosperidade coletiva e indica 17 Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS) distribuídos em 169 metas que visam fundamentalmente promover uma vida digna para todos. Estes 17 ODS são integrados e indivisíveis, e mesclam, de forma equilibrada as três dimensões do desenvolvimento sustentável: a econômica, a social e a ambiental.
As universidades desempenham um papel fundamental dentro do cumprimento desta agenda, estando diretamente envolvida em todos os ODS.
Neste sentido, o PPGCS desenvolve projetos e forma profissionais estreitamente relacionados a Agenda 2030, com particular proximidade com ODS: 3) Saúde e Bem-Estar e 4) Educação de Qualidade.
Quanto ao Objetivo 3 (Saúde e Bem-Estar) a agenda 2030 visa assegurar uma vida saudável e promover o bem-estar para todos, em todas as idades. Em acordo com este ambicioso objetivo PPGCS tem atuado em cooperação com gestores de saúde locais, regionais e nacionais para: a redução da mortalidade infantil; melhoria da saúde materna, na luta contra o HIV/Aids, controle da tuberculose e outras doenças infecto-parasitárias. Apesar de melhorias nas taxas de incidência e mortalidade destes agravos, os números continuam inaceitáveis e absolutamente incompatíveis com o potencial econômico do país. Dentre as metas do Objetivo 3 onde há uma clara participação do PGGCS destacam-se:
▪ Reduzir a taxa de mortalidade materna global para menos de 70 mortes por 100.000 nascidos vivos
▪ Acabar com as mortes evitáveis de recém-nascidos e crianças menores de 5 anos, com todos os países objetivando reduzir a mortalidade neonatal para pelo menos até 12 por 1.000 nascidos vivos e a mortalidade de crianças menores de 5 anos para pelo menos até 25 por 1.000 nascidos vivos
▪ Acabar com as epidemias de AIDS, tuberculose, malária e doenças tropicais negligenciadas, e combater a hepatite, doenças transmitidas pela água, e outras doenças transmissíveis
▪ Reduzir em um terço a mortalidade prematura por doenças não transmissíveis por meio de prevenção e tratamento, e promover a saúde mental e o bem-estar
▪ Reforçar a prevenção e o tratamento do abuso de substâncias, incluindo o abuso de drogas entorpecentes e uso nocivo do álcool
▪ Assegurar o acesso universal aos serviços de saúde sexual e reprodutiva, incluindo o planejamento familiar, informação e educação, bem como a integração da saúde reprodutiva em estratégias e programas nacionais
▪ Atingir a cobertura universal de saúde, incluindo a proteção do risco financeiro, o acesso a serviços de saúde essenciais de qualidade e o acesso a medicamentos e vacinas essenciais seguros, eficazes, de qualidade e a preços acessíveis para todos
▪ Reduzir substancialmente o número de mortes e doenças por produtos químicos perigosos e por contaminação e poluição do ar, da água e do solo
O objetivo 4 (Educação e Qualidade) da agenda 2030 visa assegurar a educação inclusive, baseada nos princípios de direitos humanos, equitativa e de qualidade. A promoção da capacitação dos indivíduos é o centro deste objetivo, que visa ampliar as oportunidades das pessoas mais vulneráveis no caminho do desenvolvimento. O PPGCS foi criado em 2004, com o curso de mestrado, tendo iniciado o curso de doutorado em 2011. Nestes 15 anos de atividade foram titulados cerca de 200 profissionais (140 mestres e 60 doutores) com dissertações, teses e publicações científicas estreitamente alinhadas com as metas do Objetivo 3. Além disso o PGGCS tem especial destaque por sua atuação nas seguintes metas:
▪ Assegurar a igualdade de acesso para todos os homens e mulheres à educação técnica, profissional e superior de qualidade, a preços acessíveis, incluindo universidade
▪ Aumentar substancialmente o número de jovens e adultos que tenham habilidades relevantes, inclusive competências técnicas e profissionais, para emprego, trabalho decente e empreendedorismo
▪ Eliminar as disparidades de gênero na educação e garantir a igualdade de acesso a todos os níveis de educação e formação profissional para os mais vulneráveis, incluindo as pessoas com deficiência, povos indígenas e as crianças em situação de vulnerabilidade
▪ Garantir que todos os alunos adquiram conhecimentos e habilidades necessárias para promover o desenvolvimento sustentável, inclusive, entre outros, por meio da educação para o desenvolvimento sustentável e estilos de vida sustentáveis, direitos humanos, igualdade de gênero, promoção de uma cultura de paz e não-violência, cidadania global, e valorização da diversidade cultural e da contribuição da cultura para o desenvolvimento sustentável
▪ Aumentar o contingente de professores qualificados, inclusive por meio da cooperação internacional para a formação de professores, nos países em desenvolvimento, especialmente os países de menor desenvolvimento relativo e pequenos Estados insulares em desenvolvimento
A vocação do PPGCS e seu histórico de atuação acadêmico-científica o coloca plenamente alinhado com a Agenda 2030, com especial destaque para a articulação entre os objetivos 3 e 4 e as principais metas correspondentes. -

The studies developed on this area are based on the knowledge of factors associated with pathogens, host and environment. Also, in a more pragmatic form, the impact of infection for both the patient and public health, cost-effectiveness of new control strategies such as implementation of protocols for the rational use of antimicrobials, disinfection and antisepsis procedures, diagnostic methods, monitoring and control measures of infections are studied. In relation to antimicrobial resistance, the studies are not restricted to hospital infections but also those acquired in the community, such as antimicrobial resistance rate, resistance mechanisms, biological cost and fitness of resistant pathogens, dissemination of resistant pathogens, horizontal transmission of genes associated with resistance and the evolution of resistance against selective pressure by consumption of antimicrobials.
