Bio/Research

Dr. Gillis' general research interests lie in the mechanisms that regulate cardiac function. More specifically, Gillis is interested in the role of cardiac proteins in regulating cardiac contraction and how these have been manipulated, through evolution, to enable cardiac function over a range of physiological conditions. A great deal can be learned of the biochemical basis of physiological adaptation by characterizing the function of different protein isoforms cloned from species that live under different environmental conditions.
