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).

• Why an integrated view of gene expression studies on hematopoiesis in mouse aging is better than the sum of their parts.

  Combining differentially expressed (DE) gene lists from multiple publications into a unified 'aging list' (AL) with citation counts, and deriving a shorter high-confidence 'aging signature' (AS, genes cited in >3 publications, ~200 genes), produces a more reliable and consistent picture of hematopoietic aging than any single study.
