I am a young woman, 26 years of age. I hold A BSc and Mphil degree in Botany with specialization in plant patholgy and mycology from the University of Ghana, Legon. I am interested in a PHD in plant molecular biology which would help me understand how disease are caused in plants. I also have knowlege of molecular biology since i took some course in molecular biology from the biochemistry department.
I am a female, 31 years of age and searching for a PhD position in plant molecular biology. I have a 5 year post graduate diploma in agriculture and an MSc. for the catholic university of Leuven. My Masters thesis in the field of microbiology and biochemistry. The techniques I used were PCR and HPLC. I wish to have a PhD position that provides further training in plant molecular techniques.
My MSc was in plant molecular biology but I did not have the opportunity to apply most of the techniques . I am very eager to learn and even ready to go in for a short course in plant molecular techniques before commencing the PhD.
my name is Tahir working as a senior research officer in NUST center of virology and immunology, Pakistan. i did my M.SC in Botany from Punjab university, after i did my M.Phil thesis on Effect of tanneries waster water on the agronomic and biochemical aspect of Pea plant.
presently i am working on Environmental waste water samples and developing some assay regarding identification and diagnostic of HEV, HAV, entero viruses from the open sewerage water, i these studies i used RT-PCR, DNA sequencer / analyzer, ELISA etc
i think i can prove my self valuable in your organization if get a chance in Ph.D hopping to get favourable response,

Dear Sir,
I am a lecturer in one Ethiopian universities. I have graduated from Addis Ababa university in masters of science in Botanical science, from Biology department.
Now, i am very interested to upgrade my education to Phd level especially in plant molecular biology. This is so, because we don’t have more scholars on this specific field due to different constraints our universities are facing so far. Nowadays, it is very important to study organisms at molecular level as time goes and technologies are advancing.
Thus, I look forward to hearing from you wether it is possible to apply or not through e-mail.
thank you!!!
I am Ethiopian. I did BSc degree in Plant science from Hawassa University and MSc degree in plant pathology from Indian Agricultural Research Institute(I.A.R.I).

Dear sir
I am neda mohamadi,I’m interested in Biology as a whole but mainly focused on plant physiology, phytochemistry , and plant biotechnology. Following my MSc. Graduation in plant physiology (Feb 2006), I tried so hard to find a group or lab (in Tehran, Iran) interested in plant biotechnology, but more I tried,less I found. Finally, I accepted to become a research assistant in Tehran university and devoted my off hours to my favorite field of phytochemistry. I learned HPLC,electrophoresis ,PCR and read related books and research papers, and made a research group with my friend (Peyman Rajaie). After more than one year of learning and practicing together,we started our research practically. Since then, we have submitted two papers(Analysis of the carotenoid phgments stigmas of different Corcus species by HPLC, Phytochemistery study of some species of Jurina).
Please feel free to contact me with any questions or requests for further documentation.
Thank you very much for your concideration.
Yours sincerely,
Neda Mohamadi.
Dear Sir / Madam
I am Srinath Bayyavarapu, I have comleted M.Sc. Biotechnology and I did my project on expression of GST M1 and GST T1 in chronic myeloid leukemia patients at University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad.
Signal Transduction and Regulation of Gene Expression are my prime areas of research interests. Particularly studying these aspects during disease and development excites me. With a trenchant interest to pursue PhD in these areas I am in search of doctoral position which could provide me a scope to fulfill my desire. During this search I found your lab which has been delivering outstanding research in these areas. I have carefully gone through your research profile and publications. I felt them very interesting. I strongly believe that working in your lab will provide me a scope to quench my scientific zeal.
Kindly provide me an opportunity if you have a vacancy in your lab.
Thanking you.
With Regards.
