Many of the stories I reported during my
tenure at
CNN may be viewed on the CNN
web site.
And copies of some of my documentaries are still available in some
video libraries, including:
"Perfect
People," stories of ethical challenges posed by genetic research; and
"Rhythm
and Blues," which delves into the growing understanding of the human
body clock and seasonal affective disorder.
Among my favorite news and feature reports is
an update
on a group of doctors eight years after I profiled them as they
endured
the rigors of medical residency.I arrived in Oklahoma City on the day
of
the bombing, covering the medical
aspects of the aftermath.One of the rewards of the health beat is
to
follow researchers as they glean life-saving
lessons even out of tragedies.I have keenly tracked medical
trailblazers
as they seek rewards in our genetic
code,as well as documenting investigators grappling with the limits
and pitfalls
of treatments.And then, of course, there are always days like those
the nation went bonkers for news of The
First Knee! I had to use my own anatomy for illustration until the
knee model arrived. I'm glad I wore matching socks.
