I am Dr. Van Saun, the Professor and Extension Veterinarian in the Department of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences at Pennsylvania State University. I have been on faculty since 2000 and previously was on faculty at the College of Veterinary Medicine, Oregon State University for 8 years. My appointment is primarily extension education, field investigation and teaching in the undergraduate program.

I am originally from northern New Jersey just outside of New York City. I attended Michigan State University earning my B.S. and D.V.M. degrees. I was in mixed animal veterinary practice in northern New York and Michigan. I returned to Michigan State to complete a residency in Theriogenology and a M.S. degree in nutrition. I continued my graduate education at Cornell University earning a Ph.D. in ruminant nutrition. I have been extremely fortunate to become involved in international agriculture and have been working in Eastern Europe for the past 20 years and have research collaborations in Peru investigating llama and alpaca nutrition. I am regularly invited to speak at conferences nationally and internationally, which feeds into my love of travel and exploration.
