Relocation of the Lorentz Center 

At the end of March 2025, the Lorentz Center will move to 1 location: the 2nd floor of the Snellius building, Niels Bohrweg 1. This is already where our location for the 'smaller workshops' (max 25 people) is located.
 

Our 'larger' Oort location, for a maximum of 55 people, will therefore from the end of March 2025 be housed in the Snellius building. In short: All our workshops will be in the same building and on the same floor.
 

The names @Oort and @Snellius will be replaced by other names: @Oort will be @omega and @Snellius will be @lambda. However, we will use the names @Oort and @Snellius until further notice.
Please bear with us while we adjust to this relocation, renovation and name change. These are exciting times and we are happy that we can provide even better facilities and services from the end of March 2025!
