Dear Sir,
I was awarded a fellowship under Agricultural Human Resource Development Programme to undergo six weeks overseas training programme in the area of transgenic plant development. I would like to familiarize myself with various aspects of transgenics and teaching programmes in your university. I have an earnest desire to work in your laboratory under your able guidance keeping in view of the expertise available with you. The course fees for 6 weeks to an extent of $2000 - $3000 will be borne by us. The exact dates of training period will be communicated to you in due course of time. I shall be very grateful if you could kindly respond favourably in this regard. A copy of my bio-data is here with attached.
Looking forward for an immediate reply.
With best regards.
