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.

Small stories with big implications: Identity, relationality and aesthetics in accounts of enigmatic communication
Publication year: 2020

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
In this paper we examine reports of poetic confluence, in which one person’s utterances seems to connect with another’s unspoken or unarticulated thoughts. We argue that analysis of these narratives can be investigated as a window onto social reality, and as a site in which social realities are produced, especially with respect to identity work. We show how this approach complements and develops from the small story paradigm in narrative inquiry. In our discussion we try to identify common principles that may underpin work on both the content of poetic confluence narratives, and the work done in the features of those narratives.

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND
How psi communication emerges in talk-in-interaction, its poetic configurations, what this reveals about intersubjectivity (e.g.: embodied intersubjectivity, interpersonal resonance, permeability of the physical body).
AIMS
To explore the poetics of accounts of ostensibly telepathic moments that occur in everyday life. A main assumption is that the (psi) event described in the accounts (the aboutness) feeds back in specific ways with the narrative(poetics)-in-interaction displayed to convey it.
METHOD
Our current data collection consists of 52 accounts (nearly 50 people represented) on enigmatic communication. Analysis is framed in the overlapping methodologies of narrative and talk-in-interaction.
RESULTS
The cases involve a poetic infrastructure including a narrative framework (‘small stories’) and the operation of the poetic principle of parallelism. We see how apparent speech errors or unusual turns of phrase are fulfilling an interactional function: to trigger and mark convergence/resonance between interlocutors (between a spoken utterance and unarticulated thoughts). Particular aesthetic qualities appear both in features of the production of the data, and in the experiences reported on in those. The results suggest that the poetic principle of parallelism might provide an overarching perspective (descriptive and explanatory) to advance in the analysis of an aesthetics of communication that includes enigmatic instances.
CONCLUSIONS
This project contributes to refine concepts on the poetic/narrative articulation of intersubjectivity via psi communication in everyday interaction. In particular, through the lens provided by the narrative framework of ‘small stories’ and by the poetic principle of parallelism.
