You’ll want to briefly introduce yourself and express your interest in their lab, but you’ll want to have some substance to your e-mail that may help the professor remember your name favorably. You’re not going to provide them with a novel idea, but you want to show that you’re familiar with their work. Be sure to read up on their current publications. Jot down questions or thoughtful insights you have as you read. You might be curious about their recent study and what they feel the implications may be for _. Maybe this ties into research you’ve done previously. Maybe you’d like to know their thoughts on .
