Subject: Approval Request to Attend the Novel CNS Biomarkers Summit Europe

Dear [Manager Name],

I am writing to request approval to attend the Novel CNS Biomarkers Summit Europe, taking place 30th November - 2nd December 2026 in London, UK. This meeting is the only European meeting dedicated exclusively to advancing fluid, imaging and digital biomarkers for CNS drug development, bringing together leaders across biomarker research, translational medicine, neuroscience, precision medicine and clinical development.

This year's agenda is closely aligned with our work in [insert area of responsibility], particularly our efforts related to [current project, therapeutic area or strategic priority].

Several sessions focus on topics directly relevant to our team's objectives, including biomarker validation, blood-based biomarkers, imaging technologies, digital endpoints, patient stratification, target engagement and regulatory-ready biomarker development. These discussions would provide valuable insight into emerging best practices and innovative approaches being adopted across the CNS biomarker landscape.

By attending, I would be able to:

• Gain insight into the latest advances in fluid, imaging and digital biomarkers for CNS drug development
• Learn from biomarker, translational medicine and neuroscience leaders from organisations including Roche, UCB, Lundbeck, Servier, AltPep, Bial, NRG Therapeutics and Saniona
• Benchmark our current biomarker strategy against peers tackling similar scientific and clinical development challenges
• Explore practical approaches to biomarker discovery, validation and implementation across multiple CNS indications
• Identify new technologies, solutions and potential collaborators relevant to our programmes
• Participate in dedicated workshops focused on accelerating CNS biomarker discovery and validation

Specifically, I believe the knowledge gained could support our work on [insert programme, initiative or business objective].

Following the conference, I will ensure the value of attendance is shared across the team by:

• Preparing a summary report of key takeaways
• Sharing relevant presentations, insights and industry updates
• Presenting recommendations applicable to our current research and development activities
• Highlighting emerging biomarker technologies and industry trends
• Identifying potential collaboration, partnership and vendor opportunities discussed during the event

The summit attracts a focused audience of biomarker, translational medicine and neuroscience leaders and features case studies spanning Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, ALS, epilepsy, schizophrenia, MSA and other CNS indications.

I am confident that the knowledge, connections and best practices gained from this event will support both my professional development and our team's objectives as we continue to advance [insert project or company goal].

Thank you for considering my request. I would be happy to discuss the event in more detail and explain how attendance could support our wider business goals.

Kind regards,
