History:	The BIAL Foundation was created in 1994 by Laboratórios BIAL in conjunction with the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities. BIAL’s Foundation mission is to foster the scientific study of Man from both the physical and spiritual perspectives. Along the years the BIAL Foundation has developed an important relationship with the scientific community, first in Portugal and after worldwide. Today it is an institution of reference which aims to stimulate new researches that may help people, promote more health and contribute to new milestones to gain access to knowledge. Among its activities the BIAL Foundation manages the BIAL Award, created in 1984, one of the most important awards in the Health field in Europe. The BIAL Award rewards both the basic and the clinical research distinguishing works of major impact in medical research. The BIAL Foundation also assigns Scientific Research Scholarships for the study of neurophysiological and mental health in people, arousing the interest of researchers in the areas of Psychophysiology and Parapsychology. To date the BIAL Foundation has supported 461 projects, more than 1000 researchers, with research groups in twenty-seven countries, resulting, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, out of which 172 published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665). Since 1996 the BIAL Foundation organizes the Symposia entitled "Behind and Beyond the Brain", a Forum that gathers well renowned neurosciences speakers and the BIAL Foundation Fellows which are spread around the world. Classified as an institution of public utility, the BIAL Foundation includes among its patrons the Portuguese President, the Portuguese Universities Rectors' Council and the Portuguese Medical Association.

Title:	BIAL Grants
Start date:	1994
History:	In 1994 the BIAL Foundation launched a programme of science research grants with the aim of encouraging the research into Man’s physical and mental processes, namely in fields still largely unexplored but which warrant further scientific analysis, as Psychophysiology and Parapsychology. Since its launch, applications to the BIAL grants have been increasing. Up to now 461 projects have been supported, involving more than 1000 researchers from 27 countries. The approved applications have benefited from grants in amounts comprised between €5,000 and €50, 000. The amount to be granted is fixed by the Scientific board according to the needs of each project. The supported projects have originated, until April 2013, in about 600 full papers, 172 out of which were published in indexed international journals with an average impact factor of 3.6 and a substantial number of citations (1665). Among the BIAL Foundation fellows is worth highlighting the presence of scientists from prestigious universities from the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Russia, Germany, Japan, France, Canada, and many others. The BIAL grants are promoted biannually.

Abstract/Results:	ABSTRACT: This project aims to investigate the efficacy of an innovative stress management program for health professionals using both psychophysiological and psychosocial indicators. The data collection has two phases. In phase 1, the GHQ-12 is given to all the health professionals from a central hospital in the northern region of Portugal as a general stress diagnosis. In Phase 2, the professionals with high scores on the GHQ-12 are offered an in depth stress diagnosis consisting of psychosocial and psychophysiological measures. The final sample consists of about 200 health professionals who agree to do the in depth evaluation (Pre-test) and will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group (8-week stress management intervention) or a control group (waiting list). Subsequent measures for both groups will be taken at post-test, 3-month and 6-month follow up. This report refers to Phase 1, general stress diagnosis. The GHQ12 data indicate that the prevalence of stress in these health professionals is superior to that reported in the international literature. Professional characteristics were more important than demographic aspects in predicting GHQ scores.

Abstract/Results:	RESULTS: The overall aim of this study was to investigate the influence of serotonin and dopamine receptor gene polymorphisms on various parameters relevant to the successful participation of obese people taking part in a diet and exercise obesity intervention. We demonstrated that serotonin receptor gene genotype has a significant influence on perception of hunger. We also showed that dopamine receptor gene polymorphisms significantly influence the drop out rate from an obesity intervention study, and suggest that this is due to the influence of these polymorphisms both on motivation to exercise and on restrained eating behaviours. Finally we demonstrated the efficacy of motivational interviewing in an obesity intervention programme and have shown that motivational interviews influence the relationship between measures of motivation or eating behaviours and weight loss measured by BMI change These novel findings indicate that serotonin plays a key role in determining appetite. They also indicate that extent of dopamine signalling may influence an individual's motivation to engage in weight-loss programmes. Further studies are required to confirm these findings and investigate the underlying mechanisms involved.
