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).

Comparative genomic analysis of three Leishmania species that cause diverse human disease.
PMID 17572675 · PMC2592530 · Nature genetics · 2007 · 8 claims · 6 setups

Gene duplication: the genomic trade in spare parts.
PMID 15252449 · PMC449868 · PLoS biology · 2004 · 8 claims · 7 setups
Gene duplication relaxes selective constraint on one copy, allowing exploration of evolutionary space that is otherwise forbidden in single-copy genes, making duplication the major opportunity for new gene function evolution.
