Paper to mentionMention their CIHR grant from 2020

Subject: Prospective PhD student: Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial Dear Professor Grandjean Lapierre, 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 "External validation of cough-based algorithms for pulmonary tuberculosis screening from the CODA TB DREAM challenge using cough data from Peru." (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 "Tuberculosis Whole Genome Sequencing for Disease Control in Madagascar - A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate Different Community-Level Strategies to Reduce the Burden of Disease" (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]
