Her research is chronicled in several peer-reviewed scientific journals.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li style=\"font-family:Trebuchet MS;font-size: 1rem\">During her graduate studies in plant pathology, Ms. Halpern also pursued a degree in business administration and shifted her career toward management. For the past ten years, she has been in Dr. Ilya Raskin&#8217;s laboratory at the Biotech Center of Cook College, Rutgers University, first as a Laboratory Manager and for the past year as a Research Program Administrator where she manages a large, multi-project plant biochemistry research laboratory, oversees the expenditure of all funding; coordinates all personnel actions; and prepares grant proposals, status reports and fiscal budgets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"font-family:Trebuchet MS;font-size: 2rem\"><strong>Publications<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-family:Trebuchet MS;font-size: 1rem\">A.
