His research lies at the intersection of medical anthropology, religious history, and African diasporic studies. With regional expertise in West Africa and the Caribbean, Dr. Mohr investigates how faith, colonialism, and global health intersect, particularly through the lens of Christian movements like the Faith Tabernacle Congregation and the Presbyterian Church of Ghana. His work explores medical hesitancy, spiritual healing, and the impact of pandemics on religious expression.
His recent publications reveal a consistent thematic focus on religious responses to health crises, the rationality of faith-based medical abstinence, and the transnational spread of Pentecostalism. These works span interdisciplinary domains including history of medicine, anthropology, and religious studies, often contextualized within colonial and postcolonial African societies.
