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:
This BIAL-sponsored project has allowed us to extend our ongoing FieldREG research program to include: development of an elaborate database management system capable of extracting many psychological and physical correlates of the anomalous effects appearing in such FieldREG experiments; formulation of theoretical hypotheses regarding the source of the effects and the conditions favoring their appearance and enhancement; design and implementation of a new generation of FieldREG equipment and software; acquisition of fresh experimental data to confirm and refine the theoretical models; investigation of possible pragmatic applications of the FieldREG effects in a variety of beneficial contexts.
Details of the experimental and analytical methods and the pertinent theoretical models are presented in our Interim and Final Reports, and in a number of archival articles listed below, all of which are downloadable from our website <www.princeton.edu/~pear/>. The results of this project confirm that FieldREG responses, when produced in environments fostering relatively intense or profound subjective resonance among the participants, can show large deviations from chance expectations. Venues that appear to be particularly conducive include intimate gatherings, group rituals, ceremonies at sacred sites, musical and theatrical performances, and other charismatic events. Applications in certain aspects of allopathic and alternative medical diagnoses and treatment also display correlations with patient conditions and responses. In contrast, data generated in more mundane contexts, such as academic conferences or business meetings, show significantly less deviation from chance than expected theoretically or displayed in equipment calibrations. Thus, the FieldREG strategy holds high promise for further understanding of consciousness-related information fields and their beneficial utilization in a broad range of human endeavors. Further extension of this work is planned

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Previous study at the PEAR Laboratory has established a technology, protocol, and analytical strategy capable of assessing the degree of resonance prevailing in a broad variety of public and private group environments. Under this particular BIAL-sponsored project we have extended this work to include:
- development of an elaborate database management system capable of extracting many psychological and physical correlates of the anomalous effects appearing in such “FieldREG” experiments;
- formulation of theoretical hypotheses regarding the source of the effects and the conditions favoring their appearance and enhancement;
- design and implementation of a new generation of FieldREG equipment and software;
- acquisition of fresh experimental data to confirm and refine the theoretical models;
- investigation of possible pragmatic applications of the FieldREG effects in a variety of beneficial contexts.
Details of the experimental and analytical methods and the pertinent theoretical models are presented in our Interim and Final Reports, and in a number of archival articles that are downloadable from our website <www.princeton.edu/~pear/> (see especially items no. 26: “FieldREG Anomalies in Group Situations”; 28: “FieldREG II: Consciousness Field Effects: Replications and Explorations”; 40: “A Modular Model of Mind/Matter Manifestations (M5)”; 44: “Sensors, Filters, and the Source of Reality”; 6: “Endophysical Models Based on Empirical Data”; 7: “Consciousness, Information, and Living Systems”; and 5: “The PEAR Proposition”). The results of this project confirm that FieldREG responses, when produced in environments fostering relatively intense or profound subjective resonance among the participants, can show large deviations from chance expectations. Venues that appear to be particularly conducive include intimate gatherings, group rituals, ceremonies at sacred sites, musical and theatrical performances, and other charismatic events. Applications in certain aspects of allopathic and alternative medical diagnoses and treatment also display correlations with patient conditions and responses. In contrast, data generated in more mundane contexts, such as academic conferences or business meetings, show significantly less deviation from chance than expected theoretically or displayed in equipment calibrations. Thus, the FieldREG strategy holds high promise for further understanding of consciousness-related information fields and their beneficial utilization in a broad range of human endeavors.

Abstract/Results: RESULTS:
This project examined the association between the outputs of a true random number generator (RNG) and audience size during Japanese professional baseball games. We regarded an RNG as a signal detector of field consciousness and hypothesized that the number of signal sources might increase the ability of an RNG to detect signals. Experimenters and assistants voluntarily obtained 76 samples from a total of 78 baseball games during the 2010-2011 baseball seasons. The effects of audience size at the stadium (M = 38970 ± 6058 SD, N = 78) and TV audience ratings (M = 7.07 ± 2.32 SD, N = 23) were examined in relation to the measurements of multiple Random Streamer and Psyleron RNG devices. RNGs set at remote locations ran simultaneously during the games. Our results show a positive correlation between accumulated chi-squared statistics by Random Streamer and audience size at the stadium. Unexpectedly, identical RNGs showed strong negative correlations between different machines, which suggests that their outputs cancelled each other out.

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.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Es wird experimentell untersucht, ob auf der Basis der Fokus-Hypothese nach Rowe (1998) ein Gefühl der Gruppenstimmung (group attunement) bzw. eine "fokussierte Gruppenenergie" (focused group energy) messbar ist. Der Nachweis über ein starkes "Feldbewusstsein" (field consciousness) wird methodisch mittels Zufallsgeneratoren (RNG/REG) erbracht, die Abweichungen zwischen RNG-Output und Zufallserwartungen aufweisen. Um die Validität der auf fokusierter Aufmerksamkeit basierenden Hypothesen zu überprüfen, wurden sechs Experimentalgruppen mit insgesamt 230 Teilnehmern drei ausgewählte Kurzfilme gezeigt, die als "interessant", "traurig" und "lustig" eingestuft worden waren. Ein am wenigsten anregend eingestufter und vorausgewählter Kurzfilm bildete als nicht-emotionaler Stimulus die Kontrollbedingung. Die Ergebnisse für die Gesamtauswertung der Experimentalbedingung geben Hinweise auf signifikante Abweichungen, die sich im Testresultat des gesamten Outputs der drei Experimentalbedingungen zuzüglich der Kontrollbedingung nicht bestätigen ließen. Abschließend werden Fragen für zukünftige Forschung diskutiert.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
We conducted a random effect generator/random number generator (REG/RNG) field experiment to test the retroactive effects of field consciousness and unintentional psychokinesis (PK) on targets consisting of prerecorded physical random numbers. An experimenter entered ballparks during eight Japanese professional baseball games. Multiple prerecorded random number targets were presented, and true random numbers were also generated. Unexpectedly, we found no retroactive effects on the target random numbers, and no statistical biases were evident under the generated condition, including when several other methods were applied. Future tasks related to field consciousness are discussed.
