plz help - motivation letter for summer school

0Hi, I have just finished writing this motivation letter and i'm still not sure if it's ok. I would be very grateful in anyone can check and correct it 05002br

01i00Dear Sir or Madam02i00,02br
02br
00 With this letter, I’d like to express my aspiration for participation in *** Summer School on Nanosciences *** 002008. 02br
02br
00My name is *** and I am a first year PhD student at Faculty of Physics at *** University. I 00graduated from *** University 00in 2005 with 00BSc in physics and00 obtained MSc in physics (majoring in medical physics) in July 200700. As my specialisation was a medical physics 00I have acquired a strong knowledge of physics and its applications in life science and medicine, chemistry, biochemistry and cell physiology.00 As my master’s thesis topic I chose Surface Enhanced Resonance Raman Spectrometry of crystal violet using silver and gold colloids as a enhancing factor. 00Working on my thesis gave me an opportunity to learn basics of optical spectroscopy and spectroscopic samples preparation. 00My main scientific interest is the combination of biology and physics, meeting in DNA studies using both Raman and atomic force microscopies. In my PhD project I am going to study radiation induced DNA damage using mainly AFM imaging plus SERRS and fluorescence techniques. 02br
02br
00The main reason I am interested in participation in your summer school is its 00interdisciplinarity and the fact that lectures and practicals are strictly connected to AFM and Raman spectroscopy. That is why I apply for Session B and has chosen mostly AFM practicals. The most important practicals for me are:02br
02br
00·00 01i00Force measurement with a micro mechanical oscillator based on tuning fork02i00 – the tunning fork is used widely in atomic force microscopy nowadays and it is a great opportunity to build it by myself,02br
02br
00·00 01i00Initiation to Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) techniques02i00 – which is strictly connected to the mechanism of SERRS and optical studies of DNA,02br
02br
00·00 01i00Recombinant protein production using automated liquid handling systems – 02i00we plan to do PCR in our lab and I want to learn this technique and see how the automated process from plasmid to protein is performed,02br
02br
00·00 01i00Real-time monitoring of DNA hybridization, cleavage and repair processes by FRET on a EWOD fluidic microprocessor02i00 – I would like to learn about fluorescence techniques used to monitor 00DNA, because there is a possibility that I will use them in my project.02br
00I am highly motivated to study and enthusiastic about learning new things. I work well as a team member, I am very reliable and organized.00 00I am excited by the opportunity to attend your summer school where I can apply my skills and knowledge aquired during my education. Attending this event will be a great chance for me to and expand my horizons, learn new techniques 00 00and gain knowledge of nanotechnology, which is nowadays one of the fastest growing research fields. 00 00I am also looking forward to the networking opportunities generated by the diversity of people attending this summer school. I would 00 00be happy to work together with students and researchers from all over the world.02br

02br
00 I thank you for considering my application and I am looking forward to receiving your decision.02br
