Dr.
McGilliard is interested in the physiology and pharmacology of the respiratory
system, particularly as it relates to breathing disorders in the newborn infant.
His research projects include the effects of respiratory stimulant drugs and
opiates on the control of breathing and on the contractility of respiratory
muscles in the newborn rat. Under his supervision, students have written theses
on the effects of xanthine analogs and hormones on respiratory control and
respiratory muscle function. He has received funding for his research from the
National Institutes of Health and the American Lung Association. Other interests
include endocrinology and computer simulations.
