We just launched flyRoom — modern web-based stock management for Drosophila labs. No more spreadsheets, no more messy labels, no more lost stocks. Free to start, built by researchers for researchers. www.flyroom.net

Every fly lab knows the feeling: a stock goes missing, a vial wasn't flipped, a cross genotype doesn't add up. Even the simplest lost transgenic line can cost £100–500 to replace. We built flyRoom to help with that.

Is that a 4 or a 7? Is this balanced or not? Use a professional labeller for all your stocks and crosses. No more messy handwriting and unlabeled vials. Keep track of flies' history and genealogy. Get email reminders for virgin collection or stock flipping.

flyRoom isn't just for one lab. Open your desired stocks to your collaborators or institution, and keep everyone on the same page. No more emailing spreadsheets back and forth. Want to know who has that one GAL4 in London? Just look it up on flyRoom and hit the “request” button.
