Taboo meets Technology: endometriosis thought anew

Haus der Universität, Schadowplatz 14, Düsseldorf Innenstadt, May 6, 2026, 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM

Endometriosis affects millions of people worldwide. It is a chronic condition in which tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, often on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, or within the abdominal cavity. Diagnosis often takes years, and many suffer in silence. The event will show how new technologies can improve diagnosis and treatment and help break taboos. Experts from research and health tech will discuss how science and digital innovations can make endometriosis more visible and more treatable – and what challenges remain.

Afterwards, guests are invited to continue the exchange over snacks and drinks.
