These stories, which include three installments from the "Side Effects" series and a fourth piece on a controversial treatment for MS, all involve the intersection of medicine and money. The three "Side Effects" stories are about conflicts of interest involving the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and its doctors, including one who also serves as editor of a medical journal. "Voodoo Medicine" is about an expensive MS treatment that has been championed by one doctor despite a lack of strong evidence of its effectiveness.
