    Medicine and Media
    Dr. Gupta -- a broadcaster, writer and podcaster -- is in a unique position to examine why certain health-related stories make the headlines, while others don't. He also looks at the media's role in conveying sometimes frightening information, such as his post-9/11 reports on anthrax.

    Obesity in America
    Based on his work at Fit Nation, Gupta traces the social and health-related factors that contribute to the fattening of America, and explains how we might, and why we must, reverse this unhealthy trend, especially in children.

    The Latest in the Fight Against HIV/AIDS
    Dr. Gupta presents the latest in science's fight against HIV/AIDS, but also gives us the human side, with stories of both those who suffer from the disease and those helping to treat the infected. He then examines the politics that advance, and sometimes stifle, worldwide awareness.

    Medicine in Times of War and Disaster
    Gupta shares his first-hand experience on the dangers and importance of reporting from locations where the health of thousands is at stake -- from New York during 9/11 to the 2004 tsunami to the ongoing Iraq War.
