(三)申请

　　申请是我想详细说明的一个环节。

　　我做了一年生化的实验，是关于酶的课题，自己觉得颇有意思，所以就打算重点申请这个方向。我是农业院校的，但到申请的时候我都不想做关于小麦，水稻之类的东西，而这一年多的实验对我来说恰好是一个转方向最好的理由。我们的课题是动物科学院下面一个老师的子课题，而做的内容属于蛋白质工程的，所以我想尽量往生物医学方面靠。(后来事实证明我的想法很不成熟，转方向的在第一时间就被拒了)。

　　我选学校是参考专业排名的。进到各个院系里看FACULTY做的东西，有兴趣的就发封EMAIL问问。根据教授的回信决定是否申请。我做的课题是关于PHYTASE，所以首先看的是做同样课题的教授。看下来的话就是CORNELL， PURDUE动物科学的几个教授在做。先给他们说了说情况，教授的回信如下：

　　Cornell的

　　Dear N:

　　I am very pleased to hear from you about your interest in phytase research. It seems that you are working with the group of Professor W. You may know that we were classmates at graduate school.

　　At Cornell, I have had 2-3 students lined up for entering my lab for 2005. However, I will establish a research center at XXUniversity soon. We will recruit research leaders, postdocs, Ph.D. students, and staff members. Those people will have a great chance to come to Cornell or other schools for study. If you are interested in the program, you may discuss with Professor Wang or President Wen.

　　Best wishes,

　　这个XX教授和我们学校的W教授是同学，而W老师刚好是我的本科导师。但是因为XX教授是想在我们学校建立一个合作小组。我问了问导师后就没和他联系了。因为我不想留国内等待这个机会。对我来说可能现在的发展比较重要吧。

　　Purdue的

　　My apologies, but at this time, I will probably not have any additional space for another student for at least the next year.

　　Thank you for your inquiry. I have enclosed a copy of a paper for your records.

　　You may want to contact XX from Cornell University for possibilities of working with him.

　　没戏

　　Hi N,

　　Thank you very much for your interests in my study. Unfortunately, I do not have openings. However, I will keep you with updated hiring information if I have an opening for graduate student in the near future.

　　H

　　婉言拒绝了~
