Dear Hiring Manager,

As a Doctorate of Genetics graduate with a strong interest in cancer biology and human genetics, I apply with enthusiasm for this adjunct opportunity.

I am currently a Research Coordinator at the University of Sunnybank’s Office of Immunology, where my focus is on the immunology of infectious diseases. Prior to this, I was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Biology, where in addition to instructional and lesson planning, I graded papers and tests, proctored labs, and held office hours.

As well as my instructional duties, I assisted with the research and writing of "Chapter 2: Basic Immunologic Mechanisms " in Erick Miska’s (2017) Immunology in the 21st Century - Challenges and Solutions (Persimmon Press). 

In addition to 6 years of research and teaching experience and my recent doctorate, I hold a Master of Biology. I have also attended numerous professional workshops and courses.

I have enjoyed my time at the University of Sunnybank, and am grateful for the excellent research and teaching opportunities offered. I now seek an adjunct role that will enable me to deliver stimulating courses to the next generation of biologists.

Please find attached my résumé for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps. 

Yours sincerely,

Amy Wall
