\maketitle
This is the place for a summary and an introduction.\\
See Figure \ref{fig:example} for an example Figure with caption.\\
Regarding references: The bibtex file (applications.bib) contains references in an \textit{ad-hoc} format. You can add references and adapt as needed. For example, this is a reference for work in preparation \cite{Doe:inprep}. You can highlight your name with bold font to indicate first author publications \cite{Doe:2022}. This template was used for an application as a postdoctoral researcher in astronomy and astrophysics. You can find a list of journal macros in the preamble. Comment, adapt, and delete as needed.
