Subject: Prospective PhD student: Chutes Dear Professor Brousseau, 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 "Towards evidence based emergency medicine: Best BETs from the Manchester Royal Infirmary.

[One or two sentences on what you did and what you learned.] I also saw your CIHR-funded project "Dérivation et validation d'un outil de stratification du risque applicable en préhospitalier pour déterminer le risque qu'une personne âgée nécessite des soins d'urgence et/ou une hospitalisation après une chute" (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]
