Rescue and preserve the memory of people, groups, spaces and structures of the Oswaldo Cruz Institute (IOC/Fiocruz). This is the proposal of the project 'Somos Manguinhos', launched in a special session of the Center for Studies of IOC, on November 13th.
The launch took place at the Emmanuel Dias Auditorium, Arthur Neiva Pavilion, on the Manguinhos-Maré da Fiocruz, in Rio de Janeiro.
The first session paid homage to the trajectory and legacy of researcher Sylvio Celso Gonçalves da Costa, who worked for more than 50 years at the Institute and passed away in June 2023.

Created by the Department of Journalism and Communication (Dejor/IOC), the project is aligned with the F Institutional Memory Policyiocruz and articulated with the Foundation's Communication and Scientific Dissemination Policies. The pre-launch of the initiative was held in August, during the 5th edition of Forum Fiocmemory ruz.
During the launch, the director of IOC, Tania Cremonini de Araujo-Jorge, highlighted the relevance of memory for institutional identity.
“This project will rescue stories. Some are written. Others are only in our memories. This will be a space for gathering and aggregating information from those who have lived together and those who have studied the trajectory of people, groups and spaces at the Institute”, said Tania.
The deputy director of Research and Education at Casa de Oswaldo Cruz (COC/Fiocruz), Magali Romero Sá, praised the initiative within the scope of the F's Institutional Memory Policyiocruz, who has executive coordination at COC.
"The IOC is a great partner in this policy and is launching a project that will bear many fruits”, stated Magali, who represented the Unit's director, Marcos José Pinheiro, at the event.

Creator of the 'Somos Manguinhos' project, the head of Dejor, Raquel Aguiar, emphasized the importance of sharing facts and affections.
“This project is not about the little pieces that make up the Institute. It's about how each piece and the whole dialogue, creating something much bigger than each of us. This is only possible because we have people who inspire us. O IOC It has always been a house of boldness and resistance. That’s what shared memory is,” declared Raquel, who was part of the rapporteur for the Institutional Memory Policy of the F.iocruz and is part of the Executive Coordination of the F Memory Policyiocroz.
The Deputy Director of Education, Information and Communication at the IOC, Ademir Martins, congratulated the team involved in the project.
“We are very happy to launch this project with a tribute to one of our masters, Sylvio Celso, and in a special session at our traditional Study Center. I would like to congratulate and thank everyone involved in this initiative”, declared Ademir.
First honored in the 'Somos Manguinhos' project, Sylvio Celso Gonçalves da Costa graduated in natural history from the Faculty of Philosophy, Sciences and Letters of the State of Guanabara, was a student of the Application Course of IOC and specialized in cellular immunology and immunoparasitology at the Pasteur Institute, in France. He completed his doctorate in Veterinary Sciences at the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRRJ), with a thesis on the immune response in Chagas disease, under the guidance of Nicolau Maués Serra Freire.

The researcher joined the IOC in 1959, as an intern on the team of helminthologist Lauro Travassos - an episode he recounts in previous memory project, carried out by Dejor in the context of the celebrations for the Institute’s 110th anniversary, in 2010.
In more than 50 years of experience in the IOC, created the Immunomodulation and Protozoology Laboratory (currently the Protozoology Laboratory) and led the Protozoology Department for ten years. He also coordinated, for 12 years, the Postgraduate Program in Parasitic Biology at IOC.
He published more than one hundred articles and trained around 40 postgraduate students. During the military dictatorship, he was one of those responsible for resisting the activities of the scientific magazine Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, launched in 1909.
Guided in her master's and doctorate studies by Sylvio Celso, the head of the Protozoology Laboratory, Katia Calabrese, organized the tribute. The event featured testimonials from experts trained by the immunologist, colleagues who shared their daily lives with him at the IOC and family members.
Among the participants were the director of the Veterinary Medicine course at the State University of Maranhão (Uema), Ana Lucia Abreu Silva, who was supervised by Sylvio Celso during her doctorate; researchers from the IOC, Delir Corrêa Gomes Maués da Serra Freire and Leon Rabinovitch, long-time friends of the immunologist; the current coordinator of the Institute's Parasitic Biology Program, André Roque; the scientist's goddaughter, Deise Miranda Vianna, professor at the Physics Institute of the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) and the Postgraduate Program in Teaching in BiocScience and Health IOC; and the researcher's son, Carlos Irineu da Costa.
