We have a call for support that has gone out to European labs, to support FlyBase-UK. We're asking our colleagues from labs in the US other countries to wait for a similar call to them that will go out in the near future, to support the US sites. We thank you for your patience.
The cancellation of Harvard grants has put @FlyBaseDotOrg on life support. The Flybase grant is at Harvard and everything else is a subcontract. This community resource is absolutely essential! philanthropy.cam.ac.uk/give-…

#Dros25 workshop alert!
Today at 8pm, Pacific Ballroom C - Go Big or Go Home : Polyploidy on the Fly.
Excited to host this with @gavinrrice.bsky.social!
We have an exciting line up of speakers and will hopefully have an engaging conversation on standardizing nomenclature!
