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).

A model-based approach to selection of tag SNPs.
PMID 16776821 · PMC1525207 · BMC bioinformatics · 2006 · 7 claims · 5 setups
The Li and Stephens hidden Markov model outperforms other tested models (simple Markov, two-state HMM, HMM-4D, greedy GR-1/GR-2) in description code-length, tag set information content, and prediction of tagged SNPs.

Power analysis for genome-wide association studies.
PMID 17725844 · PMC2042984 · BMC genetics · 2007 · 8 claims · 6 setups
Developed a method to compute genome-wide association study power using tag SNPs and representative population genotype data (HapMap), equivalent to the cumulative r2-adjusted power of Jorgenson and Witte.

Sequence polymorphisms cause many false cis eQTLs.
PMID 17637838 · PMC1906859 · PloS one · 2007 · 8 claims · 7 setups
Many reported local/cis eQTLs are false positives caused by probe-region sequence polymorphisms affecting hybridization rather than true cis-regulatory expression differences.

Strong signature of natural selection within an FHIT intron implicated in prostate cancer risk.
PMID 18953408 · PMC2568805 · PloS one · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Re-sequencing and genotyping across a 28.5 kb region delineates the prostate cancer risk association within FHIT intron 5 to a 15 kb LD block in European-Americans.

Given the complexity of the human genome, can 'personalised medicine' or 'individualised drug therapy' ever be achieved?
PMID 19706359 · PMC3525196 · Human genomics · 2009 · 7 claims · 3 setups
The human genome is far too complex, given current understanding, for personalised medicine or individualised drug therapy to be realised in the near term

Analysis of sequence conservation at nucleotide resolution.
PMID 18166073 · PMC2230682 · PLoS computational biology · 2007 · 8 claims · 4 setups
SCONE (Sequence CONservation Evaluation) is a novel method that estimates evolutionary rate and a neutrality p-value for individual nucleotide positions in a multiple sequence alignment.

Detecting natural selection by empirical comparison to random regions of the genome.
PMID 19783549 · PMC2778377 · Human molecular genetics · 2009 · 8 claims · 5 setups
Comparing candidate loci to empirically matched random genomic regions (ENCODE data) avoids the strong demographic/mutation assumptions required by theoretical neutral models and provides a robust test for selection

Software for tag single nucleotide polymorphism selection.
PMID 16004730 · PMC3525260 · Human genomics · 2005 · 8 claims · 3 setups
Pairwise R2 methods tend to pick more tagging SNPs than strictly needed because they miss redundancy where two or more tag SNPs jointly predict an untagged SNP with no single direct surrogate.

Evaluating the performance of commercial whole-genome marker sets for capturing common genetic variation.
PMID 17562002 · PMC1914356 · BMC genomics · 2007 · 8 claims · 5 setups
Commercial SNP panels provide levels of coverage in a non-reference Caucasian (Estonian) population similar to those seen in the HapMap CEPH (CEU) population sample

Personalized genomic medicine with a patchwork, partially owned genome.
PMID 18449389 · PMC2347364 · The Yale journal of biology and medicine · 2007 · 8 claims · 6 setups
Structural variants (CNVs) cover as much as 20 percent of the human genome length and are present in phenotypically normal individuals without apparent negative consequences.

What can genome-wide association studies tell us about the genetics of common disease?
PMID 18454206 · PMC2323402 · PLoS genetics · 2008 · 8 claims · 4 setups
Apparent patterns of common, low-effect disease-associated alleles largely reflect statistical power of studies rather than the true underlying distribution of disease variants
