Paper to mentionMention their NSERC grant from 2019

Subject: Prospective PhD student: bioFenton Dear Professor Cabana, 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 "3D fluorescence and UV-visible absorption supported by PCA chemometrics for tracking the spatial variability of dissolved organic matter in a semi-arid North African reservoir." (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 NSERC-funded project "Mycovalorisation des biosolides municipaux et traitement des contaminants d'intérêt émergent: vers le développement d'une solution pérenne" (2019), 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]
