NPR regular is UB medical professor Miriam Shuchman, a member of the psychiatry departments at UB and the Erie County Medical Center, is also a regular medical commentator on NPR's "Medical Rounds," broadcast once a month as part of National Public Radio's Weekend Edition Sunday. In the week before each broadcast, Shuchman and her colleague, Michael Wilkes, of the UCLA medical school faculty, hold a telephone meeting with NPR host Liane Hansen to choose a headline-grabbing topic; Shuchman then prepares herself with a blitz of research. On a recent "Medical Rounds," for instance, Wilkes and Shuchman discussed the new over-the-counter painkillers, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs such as Aleve. The two doctors pointed out that these drugs can cause serious side effects, including ulcers.
