She is co-author of Heading Home with Your Newborn: From Birth to Reality (AAP, 2005) and editor in chief of Baby & Child Health: The Essential Guide from Birth to 11 Years (DK Publishing, 2004) and is a member of the Parents Magazine Advisory Board. Dr. Shu has also served as national chairperson of the young physicians sections for both the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Medical Association.
