Dear Admissions Committee,

My name is Avram Dora Denisa, I am a 3rd-year student at the Univesity of Medicine

of Târgu-Mureș, Romania. I am passionate about science, research, I like to participate in
National and International Congresses for students, to create and present scientific papers. I
am an enthusiastic and highly motivated medical student willing to improve my knowledge
and practical skills. My university studies have provided me practical experience as well as
extensive theoretical knowledge in the key areas of medicine. I am a communicative person,
with a great capacity for adaptation.

I have a great interest in traveling to Brasil, as I speak Portuguese and I like

discovering new exotic places. I believe that this program meets my expectations, allowing
me to improve my knowledge. This practice could offer me a unique educational experience,
as well as personal experience, as I could have the opportunity to interact with people from
different cultures and nationalities. The Florianópolis program offers students the opportunity
to immerse themselves in the incredibly diverse culture of Brazil while living on a beautiful
sub-tropical island and making practice at one of South America's most prestigious
universities.

I would like to participate in the project „Role of neuropeptides in the modulation of

PTSD experimental models”. This topic is one of my major interests and I would be intrigued
to enhance my research experience at the Federal University of Santa Catarina. The symptoms
of posttraumatic stress disorder are often severe and persistent enough to have a significant
impact on a person's day-to-day life. Future studies should determine more precise
mechanisms of neuropeptides actions and the type of receptors involved in the psychological
and behavioral consequences of chronic stress, particularly PTSD. I would like to participate
in this kind of studies. I believe this exchange program would be a highly valuable
opportunity for me and I could also apply the experience to my future career.

Thank you for considering my application!

Sincerely, 12/21/2020

Avram Dora Denisa
