Yeah, that's the approach I use too. Eventually I'll have 2-3 versions of my resume/CV, and a file of typical paragraphs to put in a cover letter. Ideally I'll have some kind of connection to the company, like: "in a conversation with (Name) at (conference), I learned of your work in (whatever)" or "I am familiar with (product/process) from applying it to my work on (previous work)." Whenever I'm hiring, that sort of cover letter tells me that at least they've taken the time to learn about the company, so it's less likely a waste of time to interview them.

In my experience bio-med jobs are more about who you know until you can show them what you know.

Evolution is one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented processes in nature.
Here's some bullet points:

• Humans haven't evolved "higher" or "more" than earthworms, or roaches, or wheat, or yeast. (All these organisms have evolved for the same amount of time, with a similar number of mutations, but in different environments.)
• Intelligence isn't the end goal, or indeed a goal at all, of evolution. (Evolution is a process which has no direction, and no goal.)
• Humans aren't the most successful organism on earth by literally any biological metric. (And "evolutionary success" is a meaningless metric that is only used by humans.)
• "Survival of the fittest" has nothing to do with strength. (It doesn't mean fitness as in fitness center, but fitness as in "can I fit in this ecological niche?")
• Pretty much every organism we've studied lives in a symbiotic relationship with others. (Humans, from a purely biological standpoint, live in a symbiotic relationship with their gut microbiome, wheat, rice, corn, ..., livestock, horses, cats, dogs, honey bees... A symbiosis from a purely biological standpoint means: both species have a better chance to reproduce and spread due to their relationship)
