Aldous is an accomplished plant physiology researcher already with three scientific manuscripts in progress. He serves as lab manager for Dr. YongJiang Zhang. Aldous is active in both UMaine and the community as an Ambassador for the School of Biology and Ecology, and a member of the UM Horticulture Club, the Bangor Valley Freemasons, and the Black Bear Food Guild. He plans to attend graduate school next year to continue his research in plant physiology.
Our heartiest congratulations! Well done, Aldous!
