The BIAL Foundation is a Portuguese foundation whose mission is to foster the scientific study of the human being from both the physical and spiritual perspectives..[1]

It was created in 1994 by the BIAL pharmaceutical company together with the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities. It is managed by representatives from both institutions.

Over the years, the BIAL Foundation has been supporting scientific research worldwide, seeking to provide more health and reach new levels of knowledge.

Classified as a non-profit institution of public utility, the BIAL Foundation includes among its patrons the President of Portugal, the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities, and the Portuguese Medical Association.

History edit

Luís Portela, at the time chairman of the BIAL pharmaceutical company, began to idealize the BIAL Foundation in 1993, with the aim of supporting research in Health, the company’s area of activity, where innovation was one of the strategic lines of development. With this purpose in mind, he challenged the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities, together with BIAL, to set up and manage an independent non-profit institution, aimed to promote scientific development[2].

The BIAL Foundation was then established in 1994. It was the first Portuguese patronage institution, resulting from private initiative, which focused on the medical sciences. The establishment ceremony of the Foundation took place on May 6 at the Círculo Universitário do Porto, Portugal, and was attended by the President of the Portuguese Republic, Mário Soares, and the Minister of Health of the 12th Constitutional Government, Paulo Mendo.

Part of the history of the creation of the BIAL Foundation are also two names that would become crucial in its development and that integrated the Foundation’s first Board of Directors: Nuno Grande, a medical doctor, representing the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities, and Manuel Baganha, a cost accounting economist.

Scientific Board edit

The Scientific Board of the BIAL Foundation is chaired by neuroscientist Antonio Damasio, who succeeded the neuroscientist Fernando Lopes da Silva[3]. The Scientific Board is composed of more than 50 distinguished professors and researchers from several countries.

Ambassadors edit

In recent years, dozens of researchers have passed through the BIAL Foundation, helping to make it a reference in supporting scientific research, among which stand out Ralph Adolphs[4], Etzel Cardeña[5], Fátima Carneiro[6], Miguel Castelo-Branco[7], Alexandre Castro Caldas[8], Axel Cleeremans[9], Teresa Coelho[10], Rui Costa[11], José Cunha Vaz[12], Peter Fenwick[13], Teresa Paiva[14], Joana Palha[15], Dean Radin[16], Caetano Reis e Sousa[17], Chris Roe[18], Stefan Schmidt[19], Manuel Sobrinho Simões[20], António de Sousa Pereira[21] and Rui Vaz[22].

BIAL Foundation Awards edit

The BIAL Foundation promotes three Awards for the recognition of scientific work: the Prémio BIAL de Medicina Clínica, the BIAL Award in Biomedicine, and the Maria de Sousa Award[23].

Prémio BIAL de Medicina Clínica edit

The Prémio BIAL de Medicina Clínica, created in 1984, is granted in even years by the BIAL Foundation to a work of high quality and relevance in medical research. In addition to the winning work, awarded 100 thousand euros, two honourable mentions can also be attributed, worth 10 thousand euros each, for works of high merit selected by the jury. At least one of the authors of the work must be a physician of a Portuguese-speaking country. The Award has the patronage and collaboration of the President of the Portuguese Republic, the Council of Rectors of Portuguese Universities, and the Portuguese Medical Association[24].

Grants for Scientific Research edit

The BIAL Foundation promotes every two years a Grants Programme for Scientific Research with the aim of encouraging the neurophysiological and mental study of the human being, in the areas of Psychophysiology and Parapsychology[62].   

From 1994 to 2023, the Foundation supported 847 projects involving 1678 researchers from 29 countries.  

The approved applications will benefit from grants up to a maximum amount of 60 thousand euros, determined according to the characteristics of each project, by the members of the Scientific Board, who are responsible for reviewing applications.

Among the researchers supported by the Foundation are distinguished scientists from some of the most notable North American, European, and other universities[63].  

"Behind and Beyond the Brain" Symposium edit

Since 1996, the BIAL Foundation organizes the Symposia entitled "Behind and Beyond the Brain", a Forum that gathers every two years experts in neurosciences and parapsychology, as well as several researchers supported by the Foundation[64]

“Placebo effects, Healing and Meditation”, “Mind-matter Interactions”[65], “Sleep and Dreams”[66][67], “Intuition and Decision-making”[68], “Memory”[69], “Exceptional Experiences”[70], “Emotions”[71], “Enhancing the Mind”[72], or the most recent “The Mystery of Time”[73][74][75], were some of the themes already debated in the Symposia “Behind and Beyond the Brain” by world-known speakers as Miguel Castelo-Branco (Coimbra), Axel Cleeremans (Brussels), Antonio Damasio (Los Angeles), Hoyt Edge (Florida), Peter Fenwick (London), Eberhard Fetz (Washington), Fernando Gil (Sorbonne), Allan Hobson (Harvard), Jerome Kagan (Harvard), Irving Kirsch (Boston), Stephen Kosslyn (San Francisco), Stephen Laberge (Stanford), Dietrich Lehmann (Zurich), Fernando Lopes da Silva (Amsterdam), Edwin May (Palo Alto), Robert Morris (Edinburgh), Dean Radin (Nevada), Alcino Silva (Los Angeles), Ian Stevenson (Virginia), and Robert Stickgold (Harvard).
