The Brew Believer Leading UMD’s Fermentation Lab
Tom Flores (B.S. '92, biochemistry) started out as a young home brewer. After decades in the business, he's showing University of Maryland students that the craft isn't all about beer.
Now a lecturer in the Department of Nutrition and Food Science and the Department of Plant Science and Landscape Architecture, he works in UMD's Fermentation Science Laboratory, sharing the fundamentals of a field that spans cheese to kimchi to kefir.
