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 development of the childhood retrospective perfectionism questionnaire (CHIRP) in an eating disorder sample

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
This investigation explored the prevalence and predictive value of childhood obsessive-compulsive personality traits (OCPTs) in the development of eating disorders (EDs) using a novel retrospective questionnaire. To reduce bias associated with retrospective self-report data, an identical informant version of the questionnaire was also utilised. Substantial test-retest and inter-rater reliabilities were found for the questionnaire, as well as concordant validity with the semi-structured interview from which it was derived. Participants with an ED (n = 246) endorsed more childhood behaviours reflecting OCPTs than the control group (n = 89). This was mirrored in the informant report data (n = 93). The prevalence rate for each OCPT in childhood was significantly higher in the total ED sample compared to the control group. Both proband and informant reports of childhood traits predict the later development of an ED according to a strong dose-response relationship. The potential utility of this measure in future retrospective and prospective research studies is highlighted.

Movement abnormalities and psychotic-like experiences in childhood: Markers of developing schizophrenia?
Publication year: 2012
URL:
http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=8443224
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND:
Both involuntary dyskinetic movements and psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) are reported to be antecedents of schizophrenia that may reflect dysfunctional dopaminergic activity in the striatum. The present study compared dyskinetic movement abnormalities displayed by children with multiple antecedents of schizophrenia (ASz), including speech and/or motor developmental lags or problems, internalising/externalising problems in the clinical range, and PLEs, with those displayed by children with no antecedents (noASz).
METHOD:
The sample included 21 ASz and 31 noASz children, aged 9-12 years old. None had taken psychotropic medication or had relatives with psychosis. The antecedents of schizophrenia were assessed using questionnaires completed by children and caregivers. A trained rater, blind to group status, coded dyskinetic movement abnormalities using a validated tool from videotapes of interviews with the children.
RESULTS:
ASz children reported, on average, 'certain experience' of 2.5 PLEs, while noASz children, by definition, reported none. The ASz children, as compared with noASz children, displayed significantly more dyskinetic movement abnormalities in total, and in the facial and the upper-body regions, after controlling for sex and age. Receiver operator characteristics analyses yielded high area under the curve values for the total score (0.94), facial score (0.91) and upper-body score (0.86), indicating that these scores distinguished between the ASz and noASz children with great accuracy.
CONCLUSIONS:
Brief questionnaires identified children with multiple antecedents of schizophrenia who displayed significantly more involuntary dyskinetic movement abnormalities than children without antecedents. The presence of PLEs and dyskinesias could reflect early disruption of striatal dopamine circuits.

Title:
Psychotic-like experiences and other developmental antecedents of schizophrenia in children aged 9-12 years: A comparison of ethnic and migrant groups in the United Kingdom
Publication year: 2008

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND:
The incidence of schizophrenia and the prevalence of psychotic symptoms in the general adult population are elevated in migrant and ethnic minority groups relative to host populations. These increases are particularly prominent among African-Caribbean migrants to the UK. This study examined the associations of ethnicity and migrant status with a triad of putative antecedents of schizophrenia in a UK community sample of children aged 9–12 years. The antecedent triad comprised: (i) psychotic-like experiences; (ii) a speech and/or motor developmental delay or abnormality; and (iii) a social, emotional or behavioural problem.
METHOD:
Children (n=595) and their primary caregivers, recruited via schools and general practitioners in southeast London, completed questionnaires. Four indices of risk were examined for associations with ethnicity and migrant status: (i) certain experience of at least one psychotic-like experience; (ii) severity of psychotic-like experiences (total psychotic-like experience score); (iii) experience of the antecedent triad; and (iv) severity of antecedent triad experiences (triad score).
RESULTS:
African-Caribbean children, as compared to white British children, experienced greater risk on all four indices. There were trends for South Asian and Oriental children to present lowered risk on several indices, relative to white British children. Migration status was unrelated to any risk index.
CONCLUSION:
Prevalence of the putative antecedents of schizophrenia is greater among children of African-Caribbean origin living in the UK than among white British children. This parallels the increased incidence of schizophrenia and elevated prevalence of psychotic symptoms among adults of African-Caribbean origin.

The development of the childhood retrospective perfectionism questionnaire (CHIRP) in an eating disorder sample

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
This investigation explored the prevalence and predictive value of childhood obsessive-compulsive personality traits (OCPTs) in the development of eating disorders (EDs) using a novel retrospective questionnaire. To reduce bias associated with retrospective self-report data, an identical informant version of the questionnaire was also utilised. Substantial test-retest and inter-rater reliabilities were found for the questionnaire, as well as concordant validity with the semi-structured interview from which it was derived. Participants with an ED (n = 246) endorsed more childhood behaviours reflecting OCPTs than the control group (n = 89). This was mirrored in the informant report data (n = 93). The prevalence rate for each OCPT in childhood was significantly higher in the total ED sample compared to the control group. Both proband and informant reports of childhood traits predict the later development of an ED according to a strong dose-response relationship. The potential utility of this measure in future retrospective and prospective research studies is highlighted.

Title:
Persisting psychotic-like experiences are associated with both externalising and internalising psychopathology in a longitudinal general population child cohort
Publication year: 2013
URL:
http://www.schres-journal.com/article/S0920-9964(12)00701-3/abstract
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND:
Persisting psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) are associated with an increased risk of internalising symptoms in adolescence. Whether this association holds similarly for externalising symptoms, and from mid-childhood, is unclear. This prospective study investigated the extent to which PLE persistence was associated with internalising and externalising psychopathology in a community sample of children aged 9–11years at study commencement.
METHODS:
8099 children (mean age 10.4years) completed questionnaires assessing PLEs, externalising and internalising symptoms. A subsample of 547 children completed reassessment, on average, two years later.
RESULTS:
Two-thirds (66%) of children reported PLEs at baseline. Approximately two years later, PLEs persisted in 39% of those children. After adjustment for previous psychopathology and other potential confounds, children with persisting PLEs were at higher risk for internalising (odds ratio [OR]=1.94; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13–3.34) and externalising (OR=1.97; 95% CI 1.19–3.26) psychopathology than children whose PLEs remitted; and, than children who never presented PLEs.
CONCLUSIONS:
Persistent PLEs from mid-childhood are associated with later internalising and externalising psychopathology in the general population, whereas transitory PLEs may be part of a spectrum of normative childhood development. Interventions that target persistent PLEs may contribute to a reduction in common childhood psychopathology.

Systematic meta-analysis of childhood social withdrawal in schizophrenia, and comparison with data from at-risk children aged 9–14 years
Publication year: 2013

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Social withdrawal is a robust childhood risk factor for later schizophrenia. The aims of this paper were to assess the evidence for childhood social withdrawal among adults with schizophrenia and, comparatively, in children aged 9–14 years who are putatively at-risk of developing schizophrenia. We conducted a meta-analysis, including cohort and case-control studies reporting social withdrawal measured by the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) in adults with schizophrenia vs. controls. Further, an experimental study compared CBCL withdrawal scores from typically-developing children with scores from two groups of putatively at-risk children: (i) children displaying a triad of replicated antecedents for schizophrenia, and (ii) children with at least one first- or second-degree relative with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Six studies met inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis (N = 3828), which demonstrated a large effect of increased childhood social withdrawal in adults with schizophrenia (standardized mean difference [SMD] score = 1.035, 95% CI = 0.304–1.766, p = 0.006), with no indication of publication bias, but considerable heterogeneity (I2 = 91%). Results from the experimental study also indicated a large effect of increased social withdrawal in children displaying the antecedent triad (SMD = 0.743, p = 0.001), and a weaker effect in children with a family history of schizophrenia (SMD = 0.442, p = 0.051). Childhood social withdrawal may constitute a vulnerability marker for schizophrenia in the presence of other antecedents and/or genetic risk factors for schizophrenia.

Title:
Cognitive impairment among children at-risk for schizophrenia
Publication year: 2014

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Adults with schizophrenia present cognitive impairments, as do individuals at ultra-high risk for the disorder, youth with relatives with schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and children with antecedents of schizophrenia. The present study aimed to determine if impairments in childhood differed depending on the definition of risk and/or on the degree of relatedness to an affected individual, and if impairments were explained by IQ. Four groups of children aged 9–12 years were studied: (1) 13 children with =1 first-degree or =2 second-degree affected relatives (high familial loading: FHxH); (2) 14 with =1 affected second-degree relative (lower familial loading: FHxL); (3) 32 with well-replicated antecedents of schizophrenia (ASz); and (4) 45 typically-developing (TD) children with neither a positive family history nor antecedents. Compared to TD children, both FHxH and ASz children exhibited significantly poorer verbal comprehension, scholastic achievement, and verbal working memory, while FHxH children additionally displayed significantly lower full-scale IQ, and verbal memory and executive function impairments. After adjusting statistical analyses for IQ, group differences were attenuated. Relative to TD children, FHxL children showed no significant differences in performance. The results imply that impairments in verbal comprehension, scholastic achievement, and verbal working memory may index vulnerability for schizophrenia among children with affected relatives with the disorder and among those with multiple antecedents of the disorder who have no affected relatives. More accurate identification of children at-risk for schizophrenia and the specific deficits that they present provides opportunities for interventions such as cognitive remediation that may impact the development of the illness.

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.

Environmental and genetic factors envolved on child development outcomes
Publication year: 2014

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Introduction: The aim of this paper is to present a longitudinal study to detect early signs of developmental and mental health problems, namely among infants who were exposed to environmental risk factors. Gene-environment interaction on the vulnerability and resilience to developmental and mental health problems is the core of this study.
Method: We are studying 400 families from 28 weeks of gestation up to 18 months after childbirth. During the gestational period, sociodemographic and substance abuse information is collected. At 6 weeks postpartum data on perinatal background and parental mental health is collected. Salivary samples are collected from infants for 5-HTT genotype analysis. The infant's regulation of arousal, activity, affect and attention is assessed. At 6, 12 and 18 months postpartum several measures of infant development and temperament take place, as well as parental psychopathology and stress.
Results: We expect to provide data on families in which the parent's condition and life circumstances or the characteristics of the child threaten the social, emotional, behavioral and cognitive development of the child.
Conclusions: The detection of nature vs nurture factors involved on child development outcomes allow the conception of early intervention programs.

The association between the serotonin and dopamine neurotransmitters and personality traits

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Evidence from previous studies has reported that complex traits, including psychiatric disorders, are moderately to highly heritable. Moreover, it has also been shown that specific personality traits may increase the risk to develop mental illnesses. Therefore the focus of the research shifted towards the identification of the biological mechanisms underpinning these traits by exploring the effects of a constellation of genetic polymorphisms in healthy subjects. Indeed, studying the effect of genetic variants in normal personality provides a unique means for identifying candidate genes which may increase the risk for psychiatric disorders. In this review, we discuss the impact of two of the most frequently studied genetic polymorphisms on personality in healthy subjects, the 5-HTT polymorphism of the serotonin transporter and the DRD2/DRD4 polymorphisms of the D2/D4 dopamine's receptors. The main aims are: (a) to highlight that the study of candidate genes provides a fruitful ground for the identification of the biological underpinnings of personality without, though, reaching a general consensus about the strength of this relationship; and (b) to outline that the research in personality genetics should be expanded to provide a clearer picture of the heritability of personality traits.
