Photo courtesy Alltech.<br><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Mark Lyons has been elected to the Transylvania University Board of Trustees beginning in 2019. Lyons is president and CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alltech.com\/\">Alltech<\/a> \u2014 a company dedicated to improving the health and performance of people, animals and plants through nutrition and scientific innovation \u2014 headquartered in Nicholasville, Kentucky. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Dr. Mark Lyons brings an expansive vision to Transylvania&#8217;s\nboard. Alltech and the Lyons family have a distinguished history of achieving\nexcellence in all they do while simultaneously enhancing the communities in\nwhich they live and work. We are honored to welcome Dr. Lyons to the\nTransylvania community,\u201d said President Seamus Carey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During his career with Alltech, Lyons has led the company\u2019s China office, served as director of its North American operations, and spearheaded major projects in Kentucky, Serbia, Brazil and Mexico. Lyons took the company\u2019s helm following the passing of his father, Alltech co-founder Dr. Pearse Lyons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAmong the many things I have learned from my parents, the importance of community and education are paramount,\u201d said Dr. Mark Lyons. \u201cOur Irish heritage emphasizes education as the primary catalyst for success. This resonates at Alltech, where we believe in the power of curiosity and good citizenship to create positive change in our world. In a merging of these values, I consider it a great privilege to join Kentucky\u2019s oldest university in its ongoing commitment to inspire the next generation of leaders and change-makers. This is an exciting honor, especially given the scope of Transylvania University\u2019s community engagement endeavors and its ability to respond quickly to the rapidly-changing dynamics of today. I look forward to actively participating on the board of trustees as we develop ideas that enrich the university, its students and our thriving city.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lyons received his bachelor\u2019s degree in political science and\nenvironmental science from the University of Chicago. He received his master\u2019s\ndegree in brewing and distilling, followed by a Ph.D. in the area of solid-state\nfermentation, at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh.
