Fly is the first international peer-reviewed journal to focus on Drosophila research. Fly covers a broad range of biological sub-disciplines, ranging from developmental biology and organogenesis to sensory neurobiology, circadian rhythm and learning and memory, to sex determination, evolutionary biology and speciation. We strive to become the “to go” resource for every researcher working with Drosophila by providing a forum where the specific interests of the Drosophila community can be discussed. With the advance of molecular technologies that enable researchers to manipulate genes and their functions in many other organisms, Fly is now also publishing papers that use other insect model systems used to investigate important biological questions.

Fly offers a variety of papers, including Original Research Articles, Methods and Technical Advances, Brief Communications, Reviews and Meeting Reports. In addition, Fly also features two unconventional types of contributions, Counterpoints and Extra View articles. Counterpoints are opinion pieces that critically discuss controversial papers questioning current paradigms, whether justified or not. Extra View articles, which generally are solicited by Fly editors, provide authors of important forthcoming papers published elsewhere an opportunity to expand on their original findings and discuss the broader impact of their discovery. Extra View authors are strongly encouraged to complement their published observations with additional data not included in the original paper or acquired subsequently.

Fly 是第一本专注于果蝇研究的国际同行评议期刊。Fly 涵盖了广泛的生物学分支学科，从发育生物学和器官发生到感觉神经生物学、昼夜节律和学习与记忆，再到性别决定、进化生物学和物种形成。我们努力成为每一位研究果蝇的研究人员的“必备”资源，提供一个可以讨论果蝇群体特定兴趣的论坛。随着分子技术的进步，研究人员能够操纵许多其他生物中的基因及其功能，Fly 现在也发表使用其他昆虫模型系统来研究重要生物学问题的论文。

Fly 提供各种论文，包括原创研究文章、方法和技术进步、简报、评论和会议报告。此外，Fly 还提供了两种非常规类型的贡献，即对立观点和额外观点文章。对立观点是批判性地讨论质疑当前范式的有争议的论文的观点文章，无论是否合理。 Extra View 文章通常由 Fly 编辑征集，为即将在其他地方发表的重要论文的作者提供了一个机会，让他们能够扩展自己的原始发现并讨论其发现的更广泛影响。我们强烈鼓励 Extra View 作者使用原始论文中未包含或随后获取的额外数据来补充他们发表的观察结果。
