Kirk A. Muñoz works in veterinary anesthesia and pain management, studying how animals (dogs, cats, horses, and pigs) respond to anesthetic drugs, pain, and related physiological changes such as body temperature and heart/blood pressure shifts during procedures. Recent work also includes using advanced MRI imaging techniques in large animal models to study liver contrast agents and brain injury. This research aims to improve clinical care practices like pain assessment, drug dosing, and perioperative monitoring in veterinary patients.
