SSB 2020 - Systematics in the Swamp

January 3-6, 2020 • Gainesville, Fl

About The Conference

Conference Begins In

On behalf of the Society of Systematic Biologists, the local organizing committee would like to invite you to attend the fourth in a series of standalone meetings. Following on the success of the 2017 meeting in Baton Rouge and the 2018 meeting in Columbus, we'd like to invite you to visit Gainesville, Fl during January 3-6 of 2020.

Registration is now closed.

Childcare Note: Due to low demand, we will not be able to offer childcare officially through the SSB meeting, but we have a recommendation from an SSB member who used the Twinkle Toes nanny service on a previous visit to Gainesville, and loved it. If you would like more information, please visit their website or email ssb2020UF@gmail.com.
