Gelfer has gained national and international prominence as a researcher in the field of voice and voice disorders, specifically for developing groundbreaking voice therapy for transgender people.<\/p>\n

She conducted investigations at a time when virtually no other prior studies existed in this area and her work has been a benchmark for more recently developed clinician-rated assessments of transgender voice and voice therapy.<\/p>\n

Gelfer has a long track record of service and teaching excellence. In 2008, she was awarded the Dean\u2019s Award for Outstanding Service and in both 2015 and 2016, the Dean\u2019s Award for Leadership. Having served for 15 years as department chair, Gelfer has helped foster the success of her colleagues through professional development and mentoring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
