Answer

Dear Mr Norman,

I saw your advertisement for researchers on the Natural History Museum's website, and I am writing to ask for further information about the position.

At present, I am a second-year post-graduate student, studying for a PhD in Marine Biology at Southampton University. I have a special interest in endangered sea plants, and am hoping to gain some work experience in this area.

I am very interested in the post. Could you please send me an application form, and some more information about which seas you are studying and whether we will be going on study trips?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely,

Chad Duffy
