Lehi, Utah – February 12, 2019 – Young Living Essential Oils, the world leader in essential oils, announced today that Chief Science Officer Dr. Michael Buch has been elected to the board of the Institute on Science for Global Policy (ISGP). The Institute on Science for Global Policy (ISGP) has pioneered the development of a new type of international forum based on a series of invitation-only conferences to encourage rational thinking about science and technology policy. With nearly three decades of experience in the health care industry, Dr. Buch is perfectly equipped to offer science and industry advice to policy makers across the globe.

“I’m extremely honored to join such an expert group of scientists and policy makers,” said Dr. Buch. “The ISGP impacts so many worldwide, and I’m excited to offer expertise to the men and women who enact global change.”
Young Living is thrilled with Dr. Buch’s new appointment. Jared Turner, President and COO of Young Living, said, “We’re so proud of Mike!
