Dr. Mohn's career to date has focused on discovery and/or acquisition of novel pharmaceuticals for virtually the entire range of economically important medical conditions in domestic species. Areas of significant focus have included growth promotion in swine, management of pain and inflammation in horses, dogs and cats, control of parasites in the range of veterinary species, and treatment of a wide variety of important conditions in companion animals. His work has been as basic as equipping, managing and adapting assays for a medium through-put (800,000 compounds per year) screening laboratory and as clinical as providing veterinary care for a research farm.
