Subject: Prospective PhD student: Angler's Atlas citizen science machine learning mobile apps Bayesian Belief Network data visualization angler pressure fisheries management Dear Professor Lewis, My name is [your name], and I am a [your current degree or role] at [your institution]. I am applying for a PhD position starting in [term and year]. I read your paper "From Policy to Prediction: Forecasting COVID-19 Dynamics Under Imperfect Vaccination." (2022), and it connects closely to my own work on [your research topic]. [One or two sentences on what you did and what you learned.] I also saw your SSHRC-funded project "Developing rapid response to emerging fisheries issues with citizen science, mobile apps and machine learning" (2021), and I would be glad to contribute to work in that direction. Are you accepting new PhD students for [term and year]? I have attached my CV and transcripts, and I would be glad to talk at a time that suits you. Thank you for your time. Kind regards, [your name]
