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).

Genome-wide scans for loci under selection in humans.
PMID 16004726 · PMC3525256 · Human genomics · 2005 · 8 claims · 4 setups
Natural selection and population demographic history both distort patterns of genetic variation relative to the standard neutral model, so single-locus tests cannot unambiguously distinguish selection from demography.

Population history and natural selection shape patterns of genetic variation in 132 genes.
PMID 15361935 · PMC515367 · PLoS biology · 2004 · 7 claims · 5 setups
Developed a rigorous computational approach that corrects for multiple hypothesis testing and models population demographic history to test for natural selection

Detecting natural selection by empirical comparison to random regions of the genome.
PMID 19783549 · PMC2778377 · Human molecular genetics · 2009 · 8 claims · 5 setups
Comparing candidate loci to empirically matched random genomic regions (ENCODE data) avoids the strong demographic/mutation assumptions required by theoretical neutral models and provides a robust test for selection

Importance sampling for the infinite sites model.
PMID 18976228 · PMC2832804 · Statistical applications in genetics and molecular biology · 2008 · 7 claims · 2 setups
A new importance sampling proposal distribution for the ISM, derived from a new result on exact sampling from a single segregating site, generally shows greater efficiency than the GT and SD proposals.

Projecting contact matrices in 177 geographical regions: An update and comparison with empirical data for the COVID-19 era.
PMID 34310590 · PMC8354454 · PLoS computational biology · 2021 · 7 claims · 6 setups
Updated synthetic contact matrices were generated for 177 geographical locations covering 97.2% of the world's population (up from 152 locations/95.9% in 2017).

Modeling the amplification dynamics of human Alu retrotransposons.
PMID 16201008 · PMC1239904 · PLoS computational biology · 2005 · 8 claims · 4 setups
Combining sequence diversity (π) and insertion polymorphism level (IPL) statistics can statistically exclude implausible Alu amplification scenarios and narrow the range of plausible ones for individual subfamilies.

Whole genome association mapping by incompatibilities and local perfect phylogenies.
PMID 17042942 · PMC1624851 · BMC bioinformatics · 2006 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Blossoc scores the perfect phylogenetic tree spanning the largest compatible region around each marker as a decision tree for case/control status to detect association

Size matters: just how big is BIG?: Quantifying realistic sample size requirements for human genome epidemiology.
PMID 18676414 · PMC2639365 · International journal of epidemiology · 2009 · 7 claims · 2 setups
Conventional power calculations for case-control studies disregard analytic complexity (e.g. clinical assessment errors, unmeasured aetiological determinants) and can seriously underestimate true sample size requirements

PMID 18620604 · PMC2483288 · BMC bioinformatics · 2008 · 8 claims · 4 setups
PRESTO is an order of magnitude faster than other existing permutation testing software for genetic association studies.

Developmental hematopoietic stem cell variation explains clonal hematopoiesis later in life.
PMID 39592593 · PMC11599844 · Nature communications · 2024 · 8 claims · 2 setups
Weak selection conferred by HSC variation created before birth can reliably yield clonal hematopoiesis later in life, demonstrated via shared prenatal circulation of monozygotic (MZ) twins.
