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).

• Pre-implantation embryo metabolism identified by PEMA reveals endogenous lactate insufficiency contributes to pre-implantation development arrest.
