The video provides a glimpse of the enthusiasm business executives from a variety of industries experienced at this year's AmeriQuest Symposium.

2014-04-05

CHERRY HILL, NJ, April 05, 2014 (Press-News.org) AmeriQuest Business Services, a business process outsourcing company headquartered in Cherry Hill, NJ, has released a new video documenting the AmeriQuest Symposium, its three-day conference of top executives, experts, and visionaries.

The AmeriQuest Symposium brings together the brightest minds from a diverse group of industries and enterprises to network and share insights that will impact how companies do business today and into the future. This year's topics included cybersecurity, changing technologies, generational differences and strengths, and the economy.

The video captures some of the overwhelmingly positive feedback the company has received from the nearly 300 business executives in attendance. "It gives me time to reflect on my business," says one attendee. "AmeriQuest goes the extra mile to bring in high-quality speakers," says another. This year's Symposium featured speakers as wide-ranging as global business advisor, Ram Charan, renowned futurist, Jim Carroll, and Marcus Luttrell, a Navy SEAL whose story is depicted in the book "Lone Survivor" and the movie with the same title.

"What really makes this event worthwhile each and every year is when attendees walk away saying, 'I can do that, I can be innovative,' by taking their current processes and bringing outside ideas they obtain from the Symposium to help grow their business," said Doug Clark, AmeriQuest's President and CEO.

Because the event is designed to help business leaders keep pace with emerging technologies and focus on the importance of business and personal relationships in today's economy, one attendee sums up the value of the Symposium in two words. "They should probably rename it the 'Vision Conference'," he says.

New test developed to detect men at high risk of prostate cancer recurrence

2014-04-05

Vienna, Austria: A new genetic "signature" to identify prostate cancer patients who are at high risk of their cancer recurring after surgery or radiotherapy has been developed by researchers in Canada, the 33rd conference of the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO33) in Vienna will hear today (Saturday). Professor Robert Bristow will tell the conference that although surgery and precision radiotherapy are the mainstays of treatment for cancer that is confined to the prostate, the cancer will return in between 30-50% of patients due to spread of the disease ...

Undocked working dogs at greatest risk of tail injuries in Scotland

2014-04-05

Undocked working dogs in Scotland are at greatest risk of tail injuries, indicates a survey of their owners, published in this week's Veterinary Record. Of 2860 working dogs, 13.5% sustained at least one tail injury during the 2010/11 shooting season. But undocked spaniels (56.6%) and hunt point retrievers (38.5%) were at greatest risk. To ward off one tail injury during one shooting season would require between two and 18 spaniels or hunt point retrievers to be docked as puppies, say the authors, who conclude that docking the tails of these breeds by one-third would ...

Brachytherapy helps maintain erectile function in prostate cancer patients without compromising treatment outcomes

2014-04-05

Vienna, Austria: The use of permanent brachytherapy, a procedure where radioactive sources are placed inside the prostate, into or near to the tumour, preserves erectile function in approximately 50% of patients with prostate cancer, a researcher will tell the ESTRO 33 congress today (Saturday). Brachytherapy works by giving a high dose of radiotherapy directly to the tumour, but only a very low dose to the surrounding normal tissues. Since erectile dysfunction (ED) can occur in up to 68% of patients who receive external beam radiotherapy for the condition, this is a ...

Loneliness impacts DNA repair

2014-04-05

In captivity, grey parrots are often kept in social isolation, which can have detrimental effects on their health and wellbeing. So far there have not been any studies on the effects of long term social isolation from conspecifics on cellular aging. Telomeres shorten with each cell division, and once a critical length is reached, cells are unable to divide further (a stage known as 'replicative senescence'). Although cellular senescence is a useful mechanism to eliminate worn-out cells, it appears to contribute to aging and mortality. Several studies suggest that telomere ...

Major genetic study links liver disease gene to bladder cancer

2014-04-04

A University of Colorado Cancer Center study published today in Journal of the National Cancer Institute (with related research being presented this weekend at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Conference 2014) details the discovery of a new genetic driver of bladder cancer: silencing of the gene AGL. "We tend to think of cancer resulting from mutations that let genes make things they shouldn't or turn on when they should be quiet. But cancer can also result from loss of gene function. Some genes suppress cancer. When you turn off these suppressors, ...

Scientists generate 3D structure for the malaria parasite genome

2014-04-04

RIVERSIDE, Calif. — A research team led by a cell biologist at the University of California, Riverside has generated a 3D model of the human malaria parasite genome at three different stages in the parasite's life cycle — the first time such 3D architecture has been generated during the progression of the life cycle of a parasite. The parasite that causes malaria in humans is Plasmodium falciparum. The female Anopheles mosquito transmits P. falciparum from an infected human to healthy individuals, spreading malaria in the process. According to the World Health Organization, ...

Analysis finds less research attention given to diseases of the poor

2014-04-04

Death is not distributed equally around the world. In high-income countries, people typically die in old age of chronic diseases such as cancer or cardiovascular problems. In low-income countries, death comes primarily from infectious and perinatal diseases, and strikes at a young age. But despite massive international efforts to improve global health, a new analysis of nearly 4 million scientific articles finds that research is disproportionately focused on diseases that primarily afflict wealthy countries. Correspondingly, less research attention is given to diseases ...

Nowhere to hide: Kids, once protected, now influenced by tobacco marketing

2014-04-04

(Lebanon, NH, 04/04/14) — More than 15 years ago, many states and tobacco manufacturers established restrictions to prevent youth exposure to the marketing of nicotine products. This follows regulations imposed 50 years ago that banned cigarette ads from TV. Despite these continued efforts, a new study by Dartmouth researchers reveals that not only are young people exposed to tobacco marketing, they are influenced by it. According to a study published in the Journal of Adolescent Health, exposure to "direct marketing" is associated with increased use of tobacco. "For ...

Does a junk food diet make you lazy? UCLA psychology study offers answer

2014-04-04

A new UCLA psychology study provides evidence that being overweight makes people tired and sedentary — not the other way around. Life scientists led by UCLA's Aaron Blaisdell placed 32 female rats on one of two diets for six months. The first, a standard rat's diet, consisted of relatively unprocessed foods like ground corn and fish meal. The ingredients in the second were highly processed, of lower quality and included substantially more sugar — a proxy for a junk food diet. After just three months, the researchers observed a significant difference in the amount ...
