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 genomics comes of age.
PMID 12186641 · PMC139393 · Genome biology · 2002 · 8 claims · 8 setups

Designating eukaryotic orthology via processed transcription units.
PMID 18445630 · PMC2425467 · Nucleic acids research · 2008 · 8 claims · 5 setups

Assessing the genomic evidence for conserved transcribed pseudogenes under selection.
PMID 19754956 · PMC2753554 · BMC genomics · 2009 · 8 claims · 8 setups
