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 meso-genomic era.
PMID 11516332 · PMC139414 · Genome biology · 2001 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Linkage disequilibrium (LD) between SNPs extends much further in Northern European populations (~120 kb) than in a Nigerian population (<10 kb), reflecting differing population histories (bottlenecks vs. constant expansion).
