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.

Noxious evoked c-fos expression in brainstem neurons immunoreactive for GABAB, µ-opioid and NK1 receptors
Publication year: 2002

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Pain processing is modulated at several brainstem regions through various neurochemical systems. Pharmacological studies have shown that local instillation of agents that interfere with distinct receptors, differentially affect responses to pain. However, characterisation of local nociceptive neurones as to their surface receptors was never attempted. This study investigates the nociceptive nature of brainstem neurones containing mu-opioid, GABAB and NK1 receptors, using noxious-evoked expression of the c-fos proto-oncogene.
Male Wistar rats were anaesthetised with sodium pentobarbital (50mg/Kg) and subjected to noxious mechanical stimulation of the hindlimb (stimulated group). Two hours after, the animals were perfused. Frozen sections of the brain were immunoreacted for each receptor, by the avidin-biotin-DAB method, and for the Fos protein, by the avidin-streptavidin-fast blue method. In brainstem regions with raises in Fos expression as compared to controls (perfused after 2 hours of anaesthesia), the proportions of neurones double-labelled for each receptor and for Fos protein were determined in the total number of neurones expressing the receptor.
For mu-opioid receptor, double-labelled cells increased in stimulated animals at the ventrolateral medulla (VLM), spinal trigeminal nucleus (Sp5C), dorsal portion of the parabrachial nucleus (DPB) and A5 noradrenergic region. The proportion of GABAB double-labelled cells was increased in the VLM, Sp5C, nucleus of the tractus solitarii, dorsal reticular nucleus, ventral reticular nucleus, raphe obscurus nucleus and DPB. No differences were detected for NK1 receptor -immunoreactive cells. These results point to a differential involvement in pain processing of neurones displaying mu-opioid, GABAB and NK1 receptors at different pain control centres.

Dynamics of a recombinant HSV-1 vector migration from the medulla oblongata: implications for gene therapy of pain
Publication year: 2004

http://fens2004.neurosciences.asso.fr/posters/R6/A192_20.html
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Gene therapy for pain control with viral vectors was addressed at peripheral and spinal cord levels. Since several brainstem regions are major pain control centers, the use of equivalent strategies at the supraspinal level may be useful for pain control. The caudal ventrolateral medulla (VLM) and the dorsal reticular nucleus (DRt) outstand, respectively, as major antinociceptive and pro-nociceptive centers at the medulla oblongata. Before attempting gene therapy by combined VLM activation and DRt blockade, we performed a time-course study of the dynamics of migration of a replication-defective Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 (HSV-1) expressing the reporter gene lacZ under control of the human cytomegalovirus promoter. Wistar rats received an injection of HSV-1 in the VLM or the DRt. Upon 2, 4, 7, 10 and 14 days post-injection, brains were serially cut and beta-galactosidase was detected by immunocytochemistry. The results showed that HSV-1 transfects efficiently neurons at the injection site and migrates selectively in some of the VLM and DRt afferents. The rostroventrolateral reticular nucleus is mainly transfected from the VLM, the cerebellum and vestibular nucleus mostly from the DRt while the parabrachial nuclei, locus coeruleus, nucleus tractus solitarius and A5 noradrenergic cell group are infected from both injection sites. The expression of lacZ decreased at the injection sites at 2-4 days post-injection and at 7-10 days post-injection in most encephalic areas. By combining detection of beta-galactosidase with immunostaining for tyrosine hydroxylase, we verified that the infected afferents were not exclusively catecholaminergic. These results suggest that an improvement of the promoter to obtain a long-term transgene expression and a better understanding of the neurochemical features of the transfected pathways may allow future use of this tool in gene therapy for pain.

The dilemmas of the gourmet fly: the molecular and neuronal mechanisms of feeding and nutrient decision making in Drosophila
Publication year: 2013

http://journal.frontiersin.org/Journal/10.3389/fnins.2013.00012/full
Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
To survive and successfully reproduce animals need to maintain a balanced intake of nutrients and energy. The nervous system of insects has evolved multiple mechanisms to regulate feeding behavior. When animals are faced with the choice to feed, several decisions must be made: whether or not to eat, how much to eat, what to eat, and when to eat. Using Drosophila melanogaster substantial progress has been achieved in understanding the neuronal and molecular mechanisms controlling feeding decisions. These feeding decisions are implemented in the nervous system on multiple levels, from alterations in the sensitivity of peripheral sensory organs to the modulation of memory systems. This review discusses methodologies developed in order to study insect feeding, the effects of neuropeptides and neuromodulators on feeding behavior, behavioral evidence supporting the existence of internal energy sensors, neuronal and molecular mechanisms controlling protein intake, and finally the regulation of feeding by circadian rhythms and sleep. From the discussed data a conceptual framework starts to emerge which aims to explain the molecular and neuronal processes maintaining the stability of the internal milieu.
