Is this an okay email to send for research position?
Hi Dr. [Last Name],
I hope you had a relaxing vacation! My name is [Name], and I'm an upcoming sophomore at [University] majoring in Medical Anthropology and Exercise and Sport Science.
I came across your lab on the [University] School of Pharmacy website and saw that you were accepting undergraduate interns.
I was particularly drawn to your work on telehealth equity and shared decision-making in cancer care and would love the opportunity to learn more about your research. Although I do not have formal research experience, I believe my background in Medical Anthropology has given me a strong foundation in understanding healthcare experiences from a patient-centered perspective. I would be excited to bring that perspective to your lab while learning from your team and contributing wherever I can.
I would love to be considered for an undergraduate research position in your lab. If there are any openings, I would greatly appreciate the chance to speak with you. I have attached my resume for your reference, and I would be happy to meet at a time that is convenient for you, either in person or virtually.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
[Name]
