The Manchester Fly Facility was set up with funding from the Wellcome Trust and The University of Manchester. We support scientific research using the fruit fly Drosophila<\/em> melanogaster \u2013 the genetic model organism behind 10 Nobel laureates in physiology and medicine.<\/p>\n

Drosophila<\/em> research is applicable to a vast range of research areas, including many aspects of biomedical science, evolutionary biology, work on pest control, malaria or bioinformatics.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t feel daunted to use Drosophila<\/em> as a versatile model system to test your ideas! We will help you kick-start your own fly research by supporting you with:<\/p>\n
