Paper to mentionMention their CIHR grant from 2025

Subject: Prospective PhD student: Pancreatic Cancer Dear Professor Chen, 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 "Number, depth, and location of inadvertent pancreatic guidewire cannulations, and their association with post-ERCP pancreatitis: multicenter real-time intra-procedural data" (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 "A Nutrition Intervention to Prevent Hepatic Encephalopathy in Patients undergoing Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt Insertion for Refractory Ascites: A Pilot Multicentre Randomized Controlled Trial (SUPPRESS-HE Pilot Trial)" (2025), 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]
