Molecular Biologist Cover Letter Example

Dear Dr. Benson,

In response to JBL Biotechnology Laboratory’s need for a Molecular Biologist I am submitting my CV for your review and consideration. With a Master’s degree in Molecular and Cell Biology and a focus on protein biochemistry and transport I’m eligible to enter a doctoral program at Case Western Reserve University.

In my current position at the Cleveland Water Treatment Plant I conduct tests for toxins in the water supply and through my association with The Cleveland Water Alliance have promoted collaboration among business universities and research institutions to study freshwater technology. I’ve contributed to the Alliance through education outreach research and development and being able to present my findings to non-scientific audiences. Since protein biochemistryÑwhich is a large part of JBL’s focusÑ was also my focus at Princeton, I would relish the idea of being back in the lab unraveling the mystery of the biological aspects of life. I possess excellent analytical computer and organizational skills and complete tasks in a meticulous manner. I’m familiar with the use of complex equipment like liquid chromatographs phosphoimagers and electrophoresis units. I’m searching for an opportunity in biotechnology and you’re looking for an experienced Molecular Biologist. We should talk.

I look forward to your call at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Maeve Guerra
