Dear Mr Watton
I'm interested in the Graduate Trainee Data Scientist position you advertised in the Allstat mailing list and I would be grateful if you could clarify which company the position is with, where I would be based, and an approximate salary.
To satisfy the strong interest in statistics I developed whilst studying for my PhD in Pharmacology, I gained an MSc in Applied Statistics while working as a post-doctoral researcher. My project involved fitting dose-response data using non-linear mixed modelling techniques.
Kind regards
Will
