Subject: Prospective PhD student: Acute Asthma Dear Professor Freedman, 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 "Practice patterns in asthma discharge pharmacotherapy in pediatric emergency departments: a pediatric emergency research Canada study." (2012), 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 "Effect of Intravenous Magnesium versus Placebo on Respiratory Distress Among Children with Refractory Acute Asthma in the Emergency Department-a Randomized Clinical Trial (MAGICIAN trial)" (2023), 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]
