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 jewels of our genome: the search for the genomic changes underlying the evolutionarily unique capacities of the human brain.
PMID 16733552 · PMC1464830 · PLoS genetics · 2006 · 8 claims · 7 setups
Human and chimp genomes differ by ~35 million single nucleotide substitutions, corresponding to ~1.06% divergence after removing polymorphic sites

The evolution and genomic landscape of CGB1 and CGB2 genes.
PMID 17055150 · PMC2599907 · Molecular and cellular endocrinology · 2007 · 8 claims · 5 setups
CGB1 and CGB2 arose via insertion of a DNA fragment (736/724 bp) replacing part of the ancestral hCGβ promoter and 5'-UTR, creating a novel exon 1 and causing a frameshift that produces a completely different 132-aa protein unrelated to hCGβ

Increased constraints on MC4R during primate and human evolution.
PMID 19011902 · PMC9947067 · Human genetics · 2009 · 6 claims · 7 setups
There is a significant paucity of genetic diversity at MC4R in humans but not in chimpanzees.

Sex-biased evolutionary forces shape genomic patterns of human diversity.
PMID 18818765 · PMC2538571 · PLoS genetics · 2008 · 7 claims · 5 setups
X-linked diversity is higher than the neutral expectation (0.75) relative to autosomal diversity in all six sampled human populations

'Chumanzee' evolution: the urge to diverge and merge.
PMID 17129363 · PMC1794591 · Genome biology · 2006 · 8 claims · 3 setups
Human-chimpanzee divergence was not a simple clean split; evidence suggests hybridization continued after an initial split.
