Scott Dee Announces Retirement; Reflects on Top 10 Lessons Learned

December 14, 2022 — Scott Dee

As some of you may know, I have decided to enter phased retirement at Pipestone after 35 years in veterinary medicine. Throughout my career, my primary goal has been to create new knowledge to help swine veterinarians and pork producers protect their herds from infectious disease challenges, such as porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) and African swine fever (ASF).

When Jennifer Shike invited me to share my reflections with Farm Journal's PORK, I thought it would be fun to review my favorite research projects, the primary discovery from each one, and how the outcomes were applied on the farm. For historical purposes, projects 1-4 were conducted during my PhD program as a swine practitioner in Morris, Minn., 5-7 were generated during my 12-year tenure as a faculty member at the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine and 8-10 are products of my 12 years at Pipestone.
