Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing with great pleasure to urge you to seriously consider Weng Johnson for the Young Scientists Scholarship that is announced by the Regional Centre for Biotechnology, India. Weng Johnson is a student of Trinity University and has been working under my guidance on the tissue culture of medicinal plants to discover the drugs for complex diseases from last 2 years. Having him as my student was a real pleasure as he was a very hardworking and sincere student, and I look forward to his bright future. He was always full of ideas and has a great zeal and enthusiasm for research.
Along with good research knowledge and grip over his subject, Weng also possess great presentation skills. He was also very active in co-curricular activities of the university. He was the cultural head and was a very good drummer and actor. With his effective time management skill he did all the things without affecting his research and always yielded with good results. I am confident that Weng will bear on his journey of academic success in future.
You can contact me any time for any additional information.
Sincerely,
Dr. Stephan Webster
