Symposium

In order to provide all fellows with the opportunity of discussing and present their projects, the BIAL Foundation has been organizing since 1996 Symposia entitled "Behind and Beyond the Brain".

Since then these meetings are held every two years gathering the BIAL Foundation fellows and the scientific community of the neuroscience area.

“Sleep and Dreams”, “Intuition and Decision-making”, “Memory”, “Exceptional Experiences” or “Emotions” were some of the themes already debated in the Symposia “Behind and Beyond the Brain” by well-known speakers as: Miguel Castelo-Branco (Coimbra), Axel Cleeremans (Brussels), António Damásio (Los Angeles), Hoyt Edge (Florida), Peter Fenwick (London), Fernando Gil (Sorbonne), Allan Hobson (Harvard), Jerome Kagan (Harvard), Stephen Kosslyn (Stanford), 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).

As a result of developed works the BIAL Foundation published the Proceedings of the Symposia.
