Invaluable Information for UK Expatriates at Europe-Wide Seminars

The deVere Group, the world's largest independent financial advisory, has released dates for 20 free seminars across Europe in the first quarter of 2012, with plans for a further 20 to be unveiled in the coming weeks.

2011-11-23
BIRKIRKARA, MALTA, November 23, 2011 (Press-News.org) The sessions are aimed at informing British expatriates of ways to build and maximum their wealth, and to share vital information regarding new laws for UK citizens overseas.

Invaluable advice and knowledge is to be offered by independent financial experts in several key destinations in Spain, Switzerland, Germany, Luxembourg, France, and Belgium.

deVere Group Director, Mike Coady, says the seminars are part of the Group's global commitment to reaching clients wherever they are in the world. "With the worldwide economic situation as it is, it's more important than ever to get the facts about getting the most from your money. Whether you're in France, Spain, Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Belgium, or indeed anywhere, there are many ways that we can assist you in this aim; and that's why our teams are hitting the road across the continent.

"The world has changed in recent times. Which British expat can afford not to receive essential information about protecting their wealth and having the opportunity of transferring their pensions? And who can ignore the important new residency laws affecting their wealth?

"Our team of experts will share with our guests at the seminars the various options British nationals have when living abroad."

One of the main topics at the deVere Group seminars will be Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Schemes, or QROPS, a government-approved initiative allowing UK citizens to transfer their pensions overseas.

"If you're living abroad and hold a UK-based pension scheme, you should seek advice on QROPS," says Coady. "You'll be able to slash the risks you're exposed to with the currently volatile global stock markets, take advantage of major tax benefits, and you'll avoid potential currency risks."

With an average of 60 per cent of the average pension plan invested in shares in turbulent markets, the ongoing saga of many global currencies, the major tax benefits, plus there being no compulsory obligation to buy an annuity, it is perhaps unsurprising that QROPs have been gaining increasing popularity amongst financially-aware expats since the economic downturn.

Evolutionary practices in schools can benefit at-risk students

Evolutionary practices in schools can benefit at-risk students
2011-11-22
BINGHAMTON, NY – Helping at-risk high schoolers succeed in the classroom has always been difficult. Binghamton University Professor David Sloan Wilson thinks that he has a solution: design a school program that draws upon general theories of social behavior. Wilson, who has studied the evolution of social behavior throughout his career, recently had an opportunity to advise a new program for at-risk 9th and 10th graders in the upstate community of Binghamton, NY. Known as the Regents Academy, the program initiated in the Binghamton City School District was a huge success ...

Research group proposes first system for assessing the odds of life on other worlds

2011-11-22
PULLMAN, Wash. – Within the next few years, the number of planets discovered in orbits around distant stars will likely reach several thousand or more. But even as our list of these newly discovered "exoplanets" grows ever-longer, the search for life beyond our solar system will likely focus much more narrowly on the relatively few of these new worlds which exhibit the most Earth-like of conditions. For much of the scientific community, the search for alien life has long been dominated by the notion that our own planet serves as the best model of conditions best suited ...

People with early Alzheimer's disease may be more likely to have lower BMI

2011-11-22
ST. PAUL, Minn. – Studies have shown that people who are overweight in middle age are more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease decades later than people at normal weight, yet researchers have also found that people in the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease are more likely to have a lower body mass index (BMI). A current study examines this relationship between Alzheimer's disease and BMI. The study, published in the November 22, 2011, print issue of Neurology®, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, examined 506 people with advanced brain imaging ...

Poor recycling of BACE1 enzyme could promote Alzheimer's disease

Poor recycling of BACE1 enzyme could promote Alzheimers disease
2011-11-22
Sluggish recycling of a protein-slicing enzyme could promote Alzheimer's disease, according to a study published online on November 21 in The Journal of Cell Biology (www.jcb.org). Abeta, the toxic protein that accumulates in the brains of Alzheimer's patients, is formed when enzymes cut up its parental protein, known as amyloid precursor protein. One of those enzymes is beta-secretase or BACE1. BACE1 cycles between the Golgi apparatus and the plasma membrane, traveling through endosomes on the way. A protein complex called the retromer helps transport proteins back from ...

Researchers shrink tumors and minimize side effects using tumor-homing peptide to deliver treatment

Researchers shrink tumors and minimize side effects using tumor-homing peptide to deliver treatment
2011-11-22
LA JOLLA, Calif., November 21, 2011 – The trouble with most anti-cancer therapies is that they are lethal to most cells in the body, not just cancer cells. As a result, patients experience side effects like nausea, increased susceptibility to infection, and increased risk of developing secondary cancers later in life. Researchers at Sanford-Burnham Medical Research Institute (Sanford-Burnham) are developing techniques to deliver cancer drugs directly to tumors, increasing their effectiveness and decreasing collateral damage. In a study published the week of November 21 ...

More than one-quarter of Canadian adults projected to have hypertension in 2012/13

2011-11-22
Hypertension in Canada is increasing, and it is projected that more than one-quarter of Canadian adults will be diagnosed with hypertension by 2012/13, according to a study in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/site/embargo/cmaj101863.pdf. Older women were more likely to be diagnosed with high blood pressure compared with men, and people in the Atlantic provinces had the highest rates of hypertension. Canadian researchers looked at data on 26 million adults aged 20 years and over between 1998󈟏 and 2007/08 to ...

Families report adverse events in hospitalized children not tracked by health-care providers

2011-11-22
Families of hospitalized children can provide valuable information about adverse events relating to their children's care that complements information documented by health care professionals, states a study published in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/site/embargo/cmaj110393.pdf. Hospitals in Canada have instituted systems to encourage reporting of adverse events — things that may negatively affect the recovery or health of a patient — in patient care. In pediatrics, it is estimated that 1% of children in hospital ...
