The 9th International Meuse Symposium took place on Tuesday, September 12th, 2023, in Liège (Belgium).
We organized the 9th edition of the International Meuse Symposium together with the “Samenwerkingsverband Schone Maaswaterketen” to broaden the topics towards water quality – which has been mentioned by the participants earlier. Samenwerkingsverband Schone Maaswaterketen (partners for clean Meuse water chain, https://www.schonemaaswaterketen.nl/) focuses in particular on organic micropollutants - medicines and industrial chemicals.
Conference venue:
Université de Liège, Galerie des Arts (B7b), Sart-Tilman Campus: Location of Petits Amphithéâtres - Galerie des Arts, building B7b
The conference venue is reachable by bus (bus lines 28, 41, 48, 58, 158 and E20) from the bus stop “Gare des Guillemins” (central station) in Liège.
Bus stops:
- SART-TILMAN Amphithéâtres
- SART-TILMAN Chimie (amphis)
- SART-TILMAN Physique
