Thanks to the organizers for an outstanding and thought provoking forum this morning.

Now into the home stretch of #SSB2023 with lightning talks, posters, and a closing ceremony this afternoon and evening.

Attending #SSB2023 and interested in your own SSB sticker? Look for them on tables at lunch and coffee breaks this afternoon.

Very cool symposium at #SSB2023 on systematics in #México and the importance of language/cultural #inclusivity in #science!

Having an incredible time at #SSB2023 ! Loving the setup of lightning talks: so digestible and easy to listen to, and loving the emphasis on systematics in Mexico. And the art is hard to beat! @SystBiol

Starting the 2nd and final forum of #SSB2023: "A reflection on phylogenetics in Latin America: from our research to our researchers' community"

After an outstanding first day of #SSB2023, kicking off day 2 with another session of exciting lightning talks!

On to the 2nd session of lightning talks for day 1 at #SSB2023, after a sunny lunch outside. The first poster session to follow later this afternoon.

@DMacGuig Yes, #SSB2023!

A great morning of lightning talks to kick off #SSB2023 today!

Now starting the first forum - "The burst of divergence-time estimation methods: a conversation on the how and why" with April Wright, Michael Landis, and Carl Rothfels

@SystBiol is there a designated hashtag for the 2023 meeting this weekend? #SSB2023?

I know I should be thinking about talks and posters or whatever, but there are some glorious looking places to run in Mexico City for #SSB2023
