Paper to mentionMention their CIHR grant from 2023

Subject: Prospective PhD student: Hiv Dear Professor Jenabian, 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 "Gut-heart immuno-metabolic disruption associated with inflammaging and subclinical coronary artery disease in people with HIV on antiretroviral therapy." (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 "Interplay between IL-17-producing pulmonary mucosal tissue-resident memory T-cells (Trm) and regulatory T-cells (Tregs) in HIV/SIV infections: impact on the lungs inflammation." (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]
