Subject: Prospective PhD student: Perception Dear Professor Cleworth, 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 "Computing and Evaluating Relationships Between Equal and Differential Factor Weighting for Fundamental Movement Skills and Physical Activity with Guided Active Play During Childhood." (2025), 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 "Visuomotor Contributions to Balance Control" (2020), 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]
