Paper to mentionMention their NSERC grant from 2022

Subject: Prospective PhD student: Blood Flow Dear Professor Diop, 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 "Cerebral Hemodynamic and Metabolic Responses to Anesthesia and Vasopressors in Adult Shoulder Surgery: A 2 × 2 Factorial Design Randomized Controlled Trial with Light-based Neuromonitoring (CHEM-FACT 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 NSERC-funded project "Hyperspectral Compressive Sensing Spectrometer for Adult Neuromonitoring in Cardiac Surgery" (2022), 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]
