Dr Kafoutchoni’s reading
The key phrase here is “open pool”: this is not a single fixed opening, but a hiring pool where your letter must show immediate scientific usefulness for the department. The real trap is sending a generic application, when the posting expects clear alignment with a specific research area. If your work touches mycobacteria, retroviruses, prions, or arthropod-borne diseases, state that upfront in the first lines of the letter. The practical move: tailor the letter to one clear research axis, make your expertise easy to verify, and submit before the full-consideration date.
