Experiments
Searchable full-text extractions: founding hypothesis, core claims, experimental setups, key results and statistics — pulled out of each paper as structure. Search a cell line, an assay or an entity (e.g. HUH7) and find every paper that worked with it. This corpus stands on its own: most entries carry no reproduction assessment (yet).

The stem cell population of the human colon crypt: analysis via methylation patterns.
PMID 17335343 · PMC1808490 · PLoS computational biology · 2007 · 8 claims · 3 setups
A coalescent-based, full probabilistic model with MCMC Bayesian inference provides a more powerful alternative to prior forward-simulation approaches for analyzing methylation pattern data from crypts.

Importance sampling for the infinite sites model.
PMID 18976228 · PMC2832804 · Statistical applications in genetics and molecular biology · 2008 · 7 claims · 2 setups
A new importance sampling proposal distribution for the ISM, derived from a new result on exact sampling from a single segregating site, generally shows greater efficiency than the GT and SD proposals.

Positive natural selection in the evolution of human metapneumovirus attachment glycoprotein.
PMID 17931731 · PMC7114232 · Virus research · 2008 · 7 claims · 5 setups
8 amino acid sites in the extracellular domain of hMPV lineage 1a show a higher rate of nonsynonymous than synonymous substitutions (posterior probability >0.95), indicating positive selection.

Worldwide distribution of NAT2 diversity: implications for NAT2 evolutionary history.
PMID 18304320 · PMC2292740 · BMC genetics · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
NAT2 coding region sequence variation in the Mandenka and other sub-Saharan African populations is consistent with selective neutrality and constant population size.

Traces of archaic mitochondrial lineages persist in Austronesian-speaking Formosan populations.
PMID 15984912 · PMC1166350 · PLoS biology · 2005 · 8 claims · 6 setups
Most mtDNA lineages in Taiwanese aboriginal populations are distinct from those in China and the Taiwan Han population, consistent with descent from the island's initial late Pleistocene settlers

Sex-biased evolutionary forces shape genomic patterns of human diversity.
PMID 18818765 · PMC2538571 · PLoS genetics · 2008 · 7 claims · 5 setups
X-linked diversity is higher than the neutral expectation (0.75) relative to autosomal diversity in all six sampled human populations

Simple models of genomic variation in human SNP density.
PMID 17553150 · PMC1919371 · BMC genomics · 2007 · 6 claims · 4 setups
Hierarchical Poisson model B, which allows both the mutation-rate proxy (Beta-distributed Λ) and the ARG-size proxy (Gamma-distributed T) to vary, fits the observed SNP density distribution significantly better than models with only one or neither varying.

Synonymous substitution rates predict HIV disease progression as a result of underlying replication dynamics.
PMID 17305421 · PMC1797821 · PLoS computational biology · 2007 · 8 claims · 8 setups
The synonymous substitution rate (dS) of HIV env is strongly correlated with disease progression parameters (progression time, CD4+ decline rate, viral load increase rate), unlike the nonsynonymous rate (dN).
