LONDON, ENGLAND, August 09, 2012 (Press-News.org) For its fifth consecutive year iTunes Festival returns to Camden's most iconic music venue, the Roundhouse.
Right from the get-go iTunes Festival has pulled act after act out of the bag with the Foo Fighters, Adele and even the late Amy Whinehouse taking to the famous Roundhouse stage. This year's selection surely will not disappoint either. Over 30 nights - each night of September - a different act will perform a unique live set in a personal, intimate setting. This year's acts include Usher, Ed Shearan, Emeli Sande, Deadmau5, Jack White, Plan B, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, Labrinth, Andrea Bocelli, Jessie J, Biffy Clyro and Mumford & Sons. As usual, more acts and impromptu appearances will be announced nearer the time.
Tickets are free but limited. Interested music lovers need to head to itunesfestival.com to apply and register interest.
The Roundhouse's central London location obviously has many advantages: good transport links, great restaurants and plenty of bars. But the main downside is the price of accommodation; central London hotels are notoriously expensive. However, LondonTown.com is on hand to help bargain-hunting iTunes festival goers. Visitors to the website will find exclusive rates at some of London's premier, centrally located establishments, including the four-star Thistle Euston Hotel London and Radisson Blue Edwardian Grafton Hotel.
Both hotels are located minutes away from London Underground stations with links via the Northern Line to Camden Town and Chalk Farm stations. The Thistle Euston Hotel London also benefits from a convenient Euston location offering mainline rail access out of London to the north. Room rates at these hotels start at GBP62 and GBP66 per room, per night respectively, thanks to hefty LondonTown.com secured discounts of more than 80%.
Additionally, in case there are sore heads the next morning the Thistle Euston Hotel London has a 12pm checkout whilst the Radisson Blue Edwardian Grafton Hotel has an 11am checkout time.
The best rates are for mid-week stays and early booking is advised. You can find out more on LondonTown.com.

New model synapse could shed light on disorders such as epilepsy and anxiety
2012-08-08
A new way to study the role of a critical neurotransmitter in disorders such as epilepsy, anxiety, insomnia, depression, schizophrenia, and alcohol addiction has been developed by a group of scientists led by Gong Chen, an associate professor of biology at Penn State University. The new method involves molecularly engineering a model synapse -- a structure through which a nerve cell send signals to another cell. This model synapse can precisely control a variety of receptors for the neurotransmitter called GABA, which is important in brain chemistry. The research, which ...
Doctors often don't disclose all possible risks to patients before treatment
2012-08-08
Most informed consent disputes involve disagreements about who said what and when, not stand-offs over whether a particular risk ought to have been disclosed. But doctors may "routinely underestimate the importance of a small set of risks that vex patients" according to international experts writing in this week's PLOS Medicine.
Increasingly, doctors are expected to advise and empower patients to make rational choices by sharing information that may affect treatment decisions, including risks of adverse outcomes. However, authors from Australia and the US led by David ...
Patients want more risks disclosed before treatment
2012-08-08
Australian doctors sometimes fail to warn patients of risks that could affect the patient's quality of life before providing treatment or surgery, a new study led by University of Melbourne researchers has shown.
Published in PLoS Medicine today, the study showed that some doctors, particularly surgeons, are not explaining the risk of specific outcomes that matter most to patients.
Overlooked risks that led to a legal claim or complaint included chronic pain, sexual dysfunction, visual or hearing loss, and the need for re-operation.
Lead author Dr Marie Bismark from ...
Molecular economics: New computer models calculate systems-wide costs of gene expression
2012-08-08
Bioengineers at the University of California, San Diego have developed a method of modeling, simultaneously, an organism's metabolism and its underlying gene expression. In the emerging field of systems biology, scientists model cellular behavior in order to understand how processes such as metabolism and gene expression relate to one another and bring about certain characteristics in the larger organism.
In addition to serving as a platform for investigating fundamental biological questions, this technology enables far more detailed calculations of the total cost ...
Marin County's high breast cancer rate may be tied to genetics
2012-08-08
Marin County, California has one of the highest rates of breast cancer in the world, a fact that scientists know has nothing to do with the land itself but with some other, unknown factor.
A new study that analyzed mouth buccal cell samples stored frozen at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) suggests what this factor may be: a genetic trait present among women within the county's predominantly white population.
In an article published online this week by the Journal of the American College of Surgeons, which will appear in the November 2012 print issue, ...
A molecule central to diabetes is uncovered
2012-08-08
At its most fundamental level, diabetes is a disease characterized by stress -- microscopic stress that causes inflammation and the loss of insulin production in the pancreas, and system-wide stress due to the loss of that blood-sugar-regulating hormone.
Now, researchers led by scientists at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) have uncovered a new key player in amplifying this stress in the earliest stages of diabetes: a molecule called thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP). The molecule, they've discovered, is central to the inflammatory process that ...
Study sheds light on underlying causes of impaired brain function in muscular dystrophy
2012-08-08
The molecular missteps that disrupt brain function in the most common form of adult-onset muscular dystrophy have been revealed in a new study published by Cell Press. Myotonic dystrophy is marked by progressive muscle wasting and weakness, as well as excessive daytime sleepiness, memory problems, and mental retardation. A new mouse model reported in the August 9 issue of the journal Neuron reproduces key cognitive and behavioral symptoms of this disease and could be used to develop drug treatments, which are currently lacking.
"The new animal model reproduces important ...
