OME Meeting Details
The Venue "Haus der Universität"
The Haus der Universität at Schadowplatz 14 is a place of dialogue between science and society in the heart of Düsseldorf. Following extensive renovation, the building was given to Heinrich Heine University for use as an event centre by the van Meeteren Foundation. It has served as an academic conference venue and central forum since 2013 with the aim of anchoring university research/teaching and academic culture at the heart of the city. The rooms can be booked free of charge by university members, but are also available for external events.
