Biologist Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I joined my latest project with a clear plan to stabilise data quality across a 12 month study. When I redesigned the experimental setup, we reduced duplicate measurements by 25 percent and cut reporting time by a week per milestone. The work felt practical and steady, and I kept the team focused on the core questions rather than chasing every new technique. In this role I’ve built solid skills in experimental design and data analysis, with hands on experience in microscopy, dissection, and laboratory reporting. I’ve supported staff and helped plan research activities, ensuring we met timelines and safety standards. I’m particularly keen to learn how [Company Name] applies new methods to real world problems, and I’ll bring careful observation and clear, plain reporting to the team. A recent project involved observing cellular structure changes during a treatment window and then summarising findings for a conference. We tracked imaging data with standard tools and produced three peer reviewed notes for internal circulation. The work relied on practical lab skills, collaborative planning, and careful documentation to support decisions and future experiments. I’m available to discuss how my background in experimental design and team supervision can contribute to your team at [Company Name]. I can be reached to arrange a time that suits. Kind regards, [Your Name]
