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: ABSTRACT:
This project was concerned with contacts from individuals to UK academic parapsychology or anomalous experiences research units reporting distressing anomalous experiences. It focused on contacts (via telephone, letter or e-mail) by individuals who were a) distressed or confused by their experiences, and b) seeking from these units information, help or verification of the paranormal nature of their experiences. This study was encouraged by 20 years of experience at the KPU with contacts of this kind, and motivated by: a) recent research on the effect of early identification and delay in the treatment of psychosis; and b) the strong possibility that some of the distressed individuals who contact these units before or instead of seeking medical advice about their distress are premorbid for psychotic illness. The aims of this project were to: 1) assess the extent of records of such contacts to UK units; 2) assess what information was available in these records; 3) estimate what proportion of such contacts to UK units the existing records represent; and 4) research current procedures for dealing with such contacts in these units. Two studies were developed: a survey of records of distressed contacts to participating units, and an interview study with members of staff at each of these units. Data resulting from each study was treated, respectively, by quantitative content analysis and by thematic analysis. Outcomes from both studies suggest that: 1) when academic units declare interest in anomalous experiences or parapsychology this is likely to attract a small number of distressed
individuals who are prodromal for or in first episode psychosis, and who have not contacted health or mental health advisors; 2) while there are benefits to units from media exposure, this exposure may entail some responsibilities; 3) these may be addressed by establishing a procedure in units which ensures that distressed individuals are dealt with in a structured, informed and efficient way, which should probably involve clinical advisors; 4) there are socially/culturally patterned ways of talking about unusual experiences, displaying distress and making requests, which should be considered for this purpose; and 5) the benefits of such a procedure to the affected individuals, their families and communities, and to the National Health Service are likely to be significant.
