__NOTOC__ == Basic info == The Shiu lab is located in the [http://plantbiology.msu.edu Department of Plant Biology], [http://www.msu.edu Michigan State University]. We are interested in questions about the evolution of [[duplicate genes]]. In particular, our [[Research_project |research]] is focused on determining when gene duplication occurred, how it happened, and why certain genes tend to have a higher probability of being kept after duplication. We address these questions using both computational and experimental approaches. Contact information: <pre> S-308 Plant Biology Bldg. Dept. of Plant Biology Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI, 48824 Lab phone #: 517-353-7244 PI office #: 517-353-7196 Email: shius at msu-nospam dot edu (remove "-nospam") </pre> == Members of the lab == See the [[People|'''people''']] link. == Research projects == See the [[Research project|'''research projects''']] link. == Facility == The lab is equipped to conduct standard molecular genetic experiments on plants, fungi, or bacteria. The space can house up to 6 researchers for bench work comfortably. We also have 3 standard growth chambers and 1 room for media preparation. [[Image:cluster.jpg|frame|Calculon]] In addition, we also have an in house computing cluster, [http://calculon.plantbiology.msu.edu Calculon], built by our previous building sys admin, irq13, otherwise known as [http://downgrade.org/ Bryan Murphy]. This is a 5-node cluster with dual Opteron dual-core CPUs in each. Four nodes have 2GB RAM and one has expanded to 16GB to accommondate the needs for memory intensive bioinformatic analyses. Bryan has generated [http://downgrade.org/2006/02/06/creating-an-hpcbeowulf-cluster-the-easy-way/ a document] on how he built it. <div style="margin: 0 0; background: #ccffcc; border: 1px solid #006600; padding: 3px; text-align: left"> '''This site is built on [http://www.mediawiki.org MediaWiki] but anonymous editing is disabled.
