'Memory' and 'Money, Media, and Medical Care'

Kathryn interviews Andrew E. Budson MD, author of "Seven Steps to Managing Your Memory: What's Normal, What's Not, and What to Do About It". How can we differentiate between normal and abnormal memory changes, in loved ones and ourselves? From misplacing our keys to recalling a new acquaintance's name, memory dominates everyday life. Dr. Budson is a lecturer in neurology at Harvard Medical School, professor at Boston University School of Medicine. Kathryn also interviews lawyer, doctor, and former congressional candidate Marilyn Singleton MD, JD. Dr. Singleton combines her experience as a board-certified anesthesiologist with her education in constitutional and administrative law to analyze the current heath care environment, exposing the lobbyist interests of pharmaceutical companies and insurance providers. She graduated from Stanford U and UCSF Med School completing her anesthesia residency at Harvard's Beth Israel Hospital.
