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:
OBJECTIVES:
This experiment is a computerized conceptual replication of the classical Brugmans, Heymans, and Weinberg study of 1920. The basic idea is that the agent may modify his mental picture according to the actions of the percipient which he monitors continuously. The experiment is to test the hypothesis that this constant feedback would lead to an improved overall performance even with subjects that are not known as being
specifically gifted. The results are to be analyzed in respect of correlations to different personality traits.
METHODS:
The experiment is run on two notebook computers, located in not adjacent rooms, linked together by a WLAN. The program displays on both screens a grid divided into 36 rectangles. An RNG selects the target rectangle, highlighted on the agent’s computer only. The agent tries to ‘influence’ the percipient (or the percipient tries to pick up the agent’s mental picture). The percipient will move his mouse pointer to what he feels is the target rectangle; the actual trial is finished by mouse-click. The pointer of the percipient’s mouse is displayed all the time on the agent’s screen, permitting him to monitor the percipient’s movements and to change his own intention how to influence the percipient accordingly.
Subjects came in pairs with an emotional bond. Prior to the experiment, they had to fill in various questionnaires.
RESULTS:
Following a pilot experiment during which several variations have been tested (number of rectangles, mouse pointer of percipient visible or not, feedback after single trial or not, etc.) a total of 52 pairs of subjects has undergone the experiment that makes a total of 5597 single trials scoring 180 hits (vis-à-vis an expectation of <160). No decline effect (quarter distribution) could be established.
CONCLUSIONS:
The experiment yielded positive results albeit far away from the scores of the original Brugmans experiment (yet further analysis is needed). Frequent break-downs of the Java applet (clustering only with certain subjects) may indicate PK effects on the software.
PUBLICATIONS:
It is planned to present the results at convention of the Parapsychological Association first and to get them published in one of the PA’s affiliated journals thereafter.

The role of the cerebellum in adaptation: ALE meta-analyses on sensory feedback error
Publication year: 2019
URL:
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/hbm.24681
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
It is widely accepted that unexpected sensory consequences of self-action engage the cerebellum. However, we currently lack consensus on where in the cerebellum, we find fine-grained differentiation to unexpected sensory feedback. This may result from methodological diversity in task-based human neuroimaging studies that experimentally alter the quality of self-generated sensory feedback. We gathered existing studies that manipulated sensory feedback using a variety of methodological approaches and performed activation likelihood estimation (ALE) meta-analyses. Only half of these studies reported cerebellar activation with considerable variation in spatial location. Consequently, ALE analyses did not reveal significantly increased likelihood of activation in the cerebellum despite the broad scientific consensus of the cerebellum's involvement. In light of the high degree of methodological variability in published studies, we tested for statistical dependence between methodological factors that varied across the published studies. Experiments that elicited an adaptive response to continuously altered sensory feedback more frequently reported activation in the cerebellum than those experiments that did not induce adaptation. These findings may explain the surprisingly low rate of significant cerebellar activation across brain imaging studies investigating unexpected sensory feedback. Furthermore, limitations of functional magnetic resonance imaging to probe the cerebellum could play a role as climbing fiber activity associated with feedback error processing may not be captured by it. We provide methodological recommendations that may guide future studies.

Neural adaptation to changes in self-voice during puberty
Publication year: 2024
URL:
https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tins.2024.08.001
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
The human voice is a potent social signal and a distinctive marker of individual identity. As individuals go through puberty, their voices undergo acoustic changes, setting them apart from others. In this article, we propose that hormonal fluctuations in conjunction with morphological vocal tract changes during puberty establish a sensitive developmental phase that affects the monitoring of the adolescent voice and, specifically, self–other distinction. Furthermore, the protracted maturation of brain regions responsible for voice processing, coupled with the dynamically evolving social environment of adolescents, likely disrupts a clear differentiation of the self-voice from others’ voices. This socioneuroendocrine framework offers a holistic understanding of voice monitoring during adolescence.
