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.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
With this work we tried to evaluate a hypothetic increase of paranormal capacities (clairvoyance, telepathy and precognition) among psychotherapists considering that their clinical practice might be a kind of training for such capacities.
We also tried to find an association between such capacities and changes on brain electrical activity.
For this purpose a group of 23 psychotherapists was evaluated and compared with a control group. Both groups were evaluated for clairvoyance, telepathy and premonition.
Results seem to adjust to what should be expected if subjects answered randomly.
Subjects showed no consistent results in the different experimental tasks.
Results showed no significant difference between both groups in what concerns the parapsychologic phenomena under evaluation.
No important EEG changes were found.
No evidence was found suggesting that psychotherapeutic practice might be a valid training for telepathy, clairvoyance or premonition.
About 80% of subjects said having experienced or having been testimonies of some kind of paranormal occurrence.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
The study set out to validate the previous work of Jacobo Grinberg-Zylberbaum. It had been previously shown that when two people were emotionally involved with each other a transfer of brain activity between the two people was possible. We set out to confirm this finding by looking at a group of subjects who had meditated together before testing, the active group, and a group of subjects who sat apart form each other and did not interact, the control group. For each pair, two experimental rooms separated by a corridor were used. One was used by the subject whose brain was to be stimulated by a series of tone pips, at randomised times, heard through headphones, and the other was used by the subject whose brain was to respond to those pips, who wore headphones playing white noise. For both, EEG electrodes were applied according to the 10/20 International system at C3, Cz and C4. The EEG data for the subject who heard only the white noise were then analysed to see if there was a significant difference between brain activity before and after the times at which pips were heard by the other subject.
Contrary to the findings of Grinberg-Zylberbaum, no effect was seen in the group of meditators. A small apparent effect was seen at the Cz electrode for the control group (p = 0.03 or 0.06 depending on whether the measure of brain activity was the peak-to-peak amplitude or the mean power in the lower beta frequency range). Taking into account the number of different parameters being examined in the experiment, this was not regarded as significant.
We had originally intended to continue the experiment to test a quantum mechanical model, but the absence of any significant effect precluded this.

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: RESULTS:
This study involved 25 ganzfeld telepathy sessions with musicians (including people with five years or more of musical training) and 25 psi sessions with non musicians (those with less than five years of training). The experiment made use of a “sender” and “receiver” model in which the receiver of psi information was placed in a sensory restricted environment and asked to describe a randomly selected target viewed by a sender in another location. EEG data were collected using a 28-channel electrode-cap connected to NeuroScan SynAMP digital amplifiers. Data were recorded on disk and analyzed offline using NeuroScan SCAN 4.0 software. Skin conductance data were also recorded. Both subjects and experimenters served as judges.
There were three hypotheses: There would be an overall psi effect across subjects, musicians would score higher than non-musicians in the psi task, and musicians would display a distinctive psychophysiological profile as compared to non-musicians.
While we did not find overall significant evidence of psi, the effect size was within the range expected for ganzfeld studies with unselected subjects (30% hit rate for subject judging and 35% for experimenter judging).
No significant difference was found between musicians and nonmusicians, with a reverse trend identified, and no distinctive psychophysiological profile was found for musicians. A significant gender difference was found, with women scoring significantly better than men. Additional analyses are under way with the EEG and skin conductance data.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
Traumatic memories are frequently associated with psychogenic symptoms and to the origin of belief systems responsible for dysfunctional behavior patterns. It is advisable, when treating sufferers of traumatic memories, to make use of procedures based on assisted therapeutic exposure, with the objective of not only removing the feeling of extreme vulnerability, but also rebuilding the basic beliefs acquired during the traumatic event.
This study examined whether quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) could descry differences in brain function in sufferers of traumatic memories submitted to a standardized psychotherapeutic session which includes relaxation, retrieval of traumatic memory, conscience of automatic thoughts & emotion, cognitive redecision and finalization.
Electroencephalograms (20-channel) were recorded from 20 patients with recurrent traumatic memories (accident, sexual violence and robbery) acting as determinants for the affected behavioral patterns. QEEG recordings were performed during the course of the psychotherapeutic session and the data were compared to the baseline condition. Both absolute and relative amplitudes were simultaneously analyzed at delta (0,5 –3,9 Hz), theta (4-7,9 Hz), alpha (8-11,9 Hz) and beta (12-18 Hz) frequencies.
The present study showed significant changes in the cerebral electrobiogenesis associated with the retrieval and reconstruction of traumatic memories during the standardized psychotherapy session. It is assumed from the electroencephalographic findings that the psychotherapeutic approach applied conducts the individual through consistent neurophysiologic changes that suggest amplified states of consciousness, which facilitate the psychotherapeutic process.

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.

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).

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
More than two dozen pairs of subjects were exposed to a stimulus and response condition. While the person in the response condition sat blindfolded within a darkened acoustic chamber and received various configurations of pulsed complex magnetic fields whose presentations were rotated in a counterclockwise position around the head, the person in the stimulus setting in another room was given a randomly selected picture. The stimulus person was told to think of the memories associated with the person in the response condition. The greatest congruence between the content of the narratives generated by the stimulus persons and the experiences reported by the persons exposed to the fields occurred when the derivative of change for the rotating field was about 20msec. This specific magnetic configuration, when applied around the heads of the subjects in the chamber, was associated with a peak in power within the 5 Hz to 6 Hz band of individuals setting another room while quantitative electroencephalographic activity was being sampled.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
Study 1 attempted to influence forced-choice behavioural responses via (a) 5 microT magnetic field (MF) modulated at 10 Hz and (b) a remote 'sender' undergoing autobiographical recall of positive affect memories . The MF stimulus did not influence the object choice (Rosenthal pi = .52, z = .3, p = .62) whereas the 'sender' did have an effect (Rosenthal pi = .38, z = -1.54, p = .06). When a target object was correctly chosen in the MF condition, Ss impressions were mostly affective (39%) or tactile (28%) , the former being associated with object appearance. In the 'Sender' condition, impressions were also mostly affective (55%) or tactile (18%), the former again being object related.
Study 2 evaluated affective responses to 5 microT MFs modulated at EEG alpha-range frequencies. For normalised mean SC, 57% of Ss showed a non-significant decrease in arousal (Wilcoxon p = .41, 1-t). For EEG Global Field Power (GFP), 65% of Ss exhibited a significant decrease (Wilcoxon p = .03, 1-t). EEG Frontal Asymmetry (FA) suggested a less positive emotional state (non-significant) , whereas Ss responses indicated a more positive emotional state (Wilcoxon p= .002, 2-t). There was no significant difference between the 2 MF frequency types or hemispheric difference.
Study 3 evaluated affective responses to a remote person undergoing autobiographical recall of affective memories. For normalised mean SC, 45% of Ss showed a decrease in arousal (non-significant). For GFP, 60% of Ss exhibited a decrease (non-significant). FA again suggested a less positive emotional state (nonsignificant) while Ss responses suggested a more positive emotional state (Wilcoxon p = .001, 2-t). There was no significant difference between the Sender affect types.

BIAL Foundation Archive
Start date: 1994
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.
