Why Most Published Research Findings Are False
There is increasing concern that most current published research findings are false. The probability that a research claim is true may depend on study power and bias, the number...

ITS primers with enhanced specificity for basidiomycetes ‐ application to the identification of mycorrhizae and rusts
Abstract We have designed two taxon‐selective primers for the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region in the nuclear ribosomal repeat unit. These primers, ITS1‐F and ITS4‐B, we...
ORB: An efficient alternative to SIFT or SURF
Feature matching is at the base of many computer vision problems, such as object recognition or structure from motion. Current methods rely on costly descriptors for detection a...
Statistical significance for genomewide studies
With the increase in genomewide experiments and the sequencing of multiple genomes, the analysis of large data sets has become commonplace in biology. It is often the case that ...
TCS: a computer program to estimate gene genealogies
Phylogenies are extremely useful tools, not only for establishing genealogical relationships among a group of organisms or their parts (e.g. genes), but also for a variety of re...
A molecular dynamics method for simulations in the canonical ensemble
A molecular dynamics simulation method which can generate configurations belonging to the canonical (T, V, N) ensemble or the constant temperature constant pressure (T, P, N) en...
UFBoot2: Improving the Ultrafast Bootstrap Approximation
The standard bootstrap (SBS), despite being computationally intensive, is widely used in maximum likelihood phylogenetic analyses. We recently proposed the ultrafast bootstrap a...
Surviving Sepsis Campaign
To provide an update to the "Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guidelines for Management of Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock," last published in 2008. A consensus committee of 68 internat...
Toward an experimental ecology of human development.
A broader approach to research in hu- j man development is proposed that focuses on the pro- gressive accommodation, throughout the life span, between the growing human organis...
Cryo-EM structure of the 2019-nCoV spike in the prefusion conformation
The outbreak of a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) represents a pandemic threat that has been declared a public health emergency of international concern. The CoV spike (S) glycopr...
Collinearity: a review of methods to deal with it and a simulation study evaluating their performance
Collinearity refers to the non independence of predictor variables, usually in a regression‐type analysis. It is a common feature of any descriptive ecological data set and can ...
