LAMA — or the Laboratory Animal Management Assistant — is a free, open-source browser-based application used to track large laboratory mouse colonies. It boasts a simple user interface with robust search capabilities to make tracking breeding cages and weaning litters an easier process.

Product history

In need of a more streamlined solution to tracking new mouse strains, researchers at the Pleiades Promoter Project developed LAMA for their large functional genomics program. Development occurred in close collaboration with the facility's mouse technicians "to ease the transition from paper- or Excel-based management systems to computerized tracking, allowing data export in a popular spreadsheet format and automatic printing of cage cards."[2]

A project was set up on Launchpad by developer and researcher Marko Milisavljevic on February 26, 2009. The first — and only — public release occurred as version 1.0 on July 8, 2009.[1] It's not known if further development will ever be done on the project, and thus its status is unknown.
