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.

The effects of simulated microgravity on characteristics of slow presaccadic potentials
Publication year: 2006

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The parameters of saccades and presaccadic slow potentials were studied in seven right-handed male volunteers with a dominant right eye before and after exposure to 6-day dry immersion. Visual stimuli were presented using three light diodes, which were located in the center of the visual field (the central fixation stimulus) and 10° to the right and left of it (peripheral stimuli (PSs)). The subjects performed a test with simple saccades to a PS and a test with antisaccades to the point located symmetrically in the opposite visual field. The EEG (19 monopolar leads) and electrooculogram were recorded. To isolate slow potentials, backward EEG averaging was performed, with the moment of switching on the PS serving as a trigger for the averaging. It was found that the characteristics of saccadic eye movements did not substantially change after exposure to immersion. However, both tests revealed a change in topography and a decrease in the amplitude of presaccadic slow negative potentials (PSNPs) during immersion. Characteristically, the focus of presaccadic negativity shifted to the right hemisphere so that the PSNP amplitude sharply decreased in the left and increased in the right hemisphere. A significant decrease in the PSNP amplitude on day 6 of immersion was found in the midline and left-hemispheric frontal and parietal leads. It may be suggested that, because of support unloading and a decrease in proprioceptive input, exposure to microgravity causes a decrease in the activity of the left hemisphere and prefrontal and parietal cortices, initially involved in preparation and realization of motor responses. The activation of the right hemisphere could be of compensatory character.

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.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
Event-related potentials analysed in consecutive studies led us to the following findings: a) the perception of fear from faces is gated by selective attention at early latencies, whereas only after 480 ms was the perception of disgust modulated by attention allocation; b) the order of presentation of external and internal facial features influence the integration of facial components into face gestalts, so that the external features may be especially relevant for initial object categorization while internal features would be more closely related to subsequent configural mechanisms; c) the verbal N400 wave was distinguished from its functional analogue during the processing of faces in a contextual preactivation task, which showed a predominantly occipital localization and differentiated neural generators; d) N400-like components elicited in a face-feature matching task revealed a larger and longer-lasting N400 effect with the prior presentation of internal features around 300-400 ms post-stimulus, involving a greater activation of frontal and left temporal brain areas; e) both explicit and implicit processing of famous faces resulted in an enhanced N250 whereas explicit processing was specifically associated with earlier N400 and P600, related to an increased activity within brain areas involved in identity processing around 250 and 450 ms; and f) the processing of familiar vs. unfamiliar faces in the face-feature matching task revealed that the so-called “internal features advantage” relies on the use of stored face-identity-related information around 300-600 ms, involving an incremented activity elicited by familiar stimuli in both posterior (ventral occipitotemporal) and more anterior (parahippocampal and orbitofrontal) brain regions.

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: RESULTS:
In this Project, we have investigated memory mechanisms in the human visual system, by employing a combination of psychophysics and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) methodologies to identify the neural correlates of different types of learning processes. For this purpose, we implemented and optimized a number of fMRI visual mapping paradigms in order to identify the visual brain areas of interest.
We first observed the adaptive functional reorganization of visual memory in a population of temporal lobe epilepsy patients with right unilateral hippocampal sclerosis. We used fMRI to measure brain activity changes during the episodic encoding of abstract line drawings and found that the patients engaged the left hippocampus more than controls and that the level of engagement was correlated with their memory recognition scores. These finds suggested functional reorganization of visual memory with an adaptive role, as a consequence of prolonged disease. We also found that familiar items activated visual cortical areas more than novel items, suggesting a reinstatement of visual information as a consequence of learning.
In a second study, we implemented a visual learning paradigm whereby subjects performed a face discrimination task on faces presented in multiple orientations, in order to investigate the hypothesis that the human visual system contains specialized processing mechanisms that are more engaged by upright faces than by inverted faces or non-face objects, as a result of extensive practice with upright faces. Our psychophysics experiments showed that participants gave more errors and were slower in their responses as faces were rotated away from 0º. In addition, performance was improved when participants underwent periods of training, both for trained and untrained orientations. Consistently with the expertise hypothesis, we also found a parametric modulation of fMRI activity in specialized visual brain areas, according to the quadratic behavioural effect of face orientation.

Perceptual learning for multiple face orientations
Publication year: 2009

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The well-established face inversion effect refers to a declination of performance for inverted compared to upright faces. However, perceptual learning for faces presented in non-upright orientations has not been systematically investigated. We conducted two experiments in which we investigated perceptual learning for multiple face orientations over short periods of time (Experiment 1) and for a single orientation over long-term training (Experiment 2). In Experiment 1, participants performed a same - different discrimination task (DT) on pairs of faces presented in orientations ranging between 0 and 300°. A quadratic effect was observed across orientations for both reaction times and error rates, indicating a deterioration of performance away from 0° and towards 180°. Moreover, we found that error rates as well as reaction times significantly decreased across blocks of trials, indicating a learning effect. In Experiment 2, participants carried out the DT over the course of four consecutive days (4 sessions) on faces with a single orientation (120°). Here, we observed a main effect of session, indicating that participants became significantly faster and more accurate with training. Finally, when tested with a different orientation (240°) at the end of the last session, participants showed a similar performance compared with the trained orientation (120°), suggesting that transfer of learning across orientations took place.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The present research investigated the psychophysiology of “out of body” and “in the body experiences”. There are four main results of the research:
1. To investigate “out of body” experience, we provided a psychometric decomposition of the structure underlying bodily self-consciousness in the context of the so-called rubber hand illusion, and demonstrated selective links between individual components of self-consciousness and mental body representations (Longo et al., 2008).
2. We found that transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to the temporo-parietal junction of the right – but not the left – hemisphere reduced the magnitude of interactions between visual and tactile body representations. This suggests that the TPJ is involved in detection of cross-modal conflict, and that this function is lateralised to the right hemisphere.
3. To investigate “in the body experiences”, we developed a simple behavioural method for measuring the implicit representation of the structure of the body, and documented systematic distortions in this structure. We have, furthermore, collected normative data from a large and diverse sample, which can potentially be used to analyse abnormalities of bodily experience.
4. We found that vision of bodies in intrinsic (1st person) and perspectival (3rd person) perspectives had distinct effect on touch. TMS to the EBA, furthermore, had opposite effects on these two perspectives, suggesting that this region is involved in distinguishing bodily reference frames.

Specificity and coherence of body representations
Publication year: 2009

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Bodily illusions differently affect body representations underlying perception and action. We investigated whether this task dependence reflects two distinct dimensions of embodiment: the sense of agency and the sense of the body as a coherent whole. In experiment 1 the sense of agency was manipulated by comparing active versus passive movements during the induction phase in a video rubber hand illusion (vRHI) setup. After induction, proprioceptive biases were measured both by perceptual judgments of hand position, as well as by measuring end-point accuracy of subjects' active pointing movements to an external object with the affected hand. The results showed, first, that the vRHI is largely perceptual: passive perceptual localisation judgments were altered, but end-point accuracy of active pointing responses with the affected hand to an external object was unaffected. Second, within the perceptual judgments, there was a novel congruence effect, such that perceptual biases were larger following passive induction of vRHI than following active induction. There was a trend for the converse effect for pointing responses, with larger pointing bias following active induction. In experiment 2, we used the traditional RHI to investigate the coherence of body representation by synchronous stimulation of either matching or mismatching fingers on the rubber hand and the participant's own hand. Stimulation of matching fingers induced a local proprioceptive bias for only the stimulated finger, but did not affect the perceived shape of the hand as a whole. In contrast, stimulation of spatially mismatching fingers eliminated the RHI entirely. The present results show that (i) the sense of agency during illusion induction has specific effects, depending on whether we represent our body for perception or to guide action, and (ii) representations of specific body parts can be altered without affecting perception of the spatial configuration of the body as a whole.
