Subject: Prospective PhD student: Cancer Dear Professor Kimpton, 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 "A Multicenter Prospective Cohort Study on the Use of Weight‐Adjusted Dalteparin in Patients Over 90 kg With Acute Cancer‐Associated Venous Thromboembolism—The WAVe Study" (2026), 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 CIHR-funded project "Low-dose direct oral anticoagulant compared to aspirin for the thromboprophylaxis of patients with JAK2-positive myeloproliferative neoplasms" (2024), 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]
