What has been in the field.
Projects
Research projects registered at UEMG and extension work coordinated by the group, with the year each one ran. The source is institutional paperwork: MAP registration, declarations from the Extension Office, and published call results.
Training people is part of the project, not a by-product: every front below carries the number of students who went through it. That is two completed undergraduate research fellowships and two under way, the latter funded by FAPEMIG.

Reading the support labels. PROINPE and PAEx are UEMG's internal funding programmes. BIC is FAPEMIG's undergraduate research scholarship, awarded to the student — it is what sustains the two research fronts currently running.
