A startup veterinary research company working to reduce the severity of a disorder that afflicts performance horses is relocating its corporate headquarters and operations to Lawrence to
New York.

ANOxA Corp. announced Tuesday morning that it would bring its main office along with its research and development operations to town from West Seneca, N.Y.

"Considering the Kansas City area's concentration of animal health companies, universities excelling in veterinary research and potential animal health collaborators, we find this environment very appealing," said Herman Haenert, president of ANOxA, in a statement.  "We know this is where we need to be."

The company is expected to have the Lawrence operation up and running within two months at 619 N. Second St., in North Lawrence.  Haenert and two other employees will be based in Lawrence, and the company plans to hire another seven employees within five years.
