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).

• Pathway signatures derived from on-treatment tumor specimens predict response to anti-PD1 blockade in metastatic melanoma.

  PMID 34654806 · PMC8519947 · Nature communications · 2021 · 6 claims · 8 setups
