Eva A. Sartin, DVM, PhD, Diplomate ACVP

Dr. Sartin is a Professor in the Department of Pathobiology. She graduated from the College of Veterinary Medicine at Oklahoma State University in 1979, and then completed a 3-year residency in Pathology at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine. In 1982, she joined the Department of Pathobiology at Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine. During that time, she completed a PhD, while doing a pathology residency/instructorship, and became a Diplomate in the American College of Veterinary Pathologists. She then joined the Pathobiology faculty. Dr. Sartin directs the histopathology laboratory and actively participates in the diagnostic pathology service. She is actively involved in residency training as well as teaching in the veterinary curriculum. She developed a Gross pathology web page collected from video-recorded Gross Pathology Rounds. This material is used for weekly teleconference sessions with the pathology classes at St George's University School of Veterinary Medicine, Grenada, West Indies. Dr. Sartin has served on the Veterinary Pathology editorial board and as the Associate Editor for Book Reviews. She served as the Editor-in-Chief for Veterinary Pathology from 2004 to 2007.

Research Interests

My research efforts in recent years have predominantly involved collaborative clinicopathologic studies in areas ranging from wound healing and reproductive pathology studies to mammary cancer in dogs and case studies of various conditions. My principal areas of research interest include the use of immunohistochemistry as a diagnostic tool in cancer diagnosis.
