linked-discoveries

is an Aggregator.

Linked Discoveries is an experimental pilot tool from the National Library of Medicine, launched in September 2026 as part of the NIH replication and reproducibility initiative. Starting from a PubMed citation, it builds a neighborhood of closely related publications, including replication studies, and highlights shared conditions, genes, and chemicals, NIH funding, citation relationships, retractions, and reviews. It draws on PubMed together with linked data from NCBI Gene, MedGen, and PubChem, and covers more than 29 million PubMed publications.

Linked Discoveries

Overview

Linked Discoveries is an experimental pilot resource developed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) and hosted by NCBI. NIH launched it on September 24, 2026 as an early product of its agency-wide effort on replication and reproducibility. It helps users see how an individual research finding relates to the wider body of biomedical evidence, which conventional literature searches can obscure by favoring prominent or highly cited work.

Data Content

Starting from an article with a PubMed abstract, Linked Discoveries assembles a “neighborhood” of closely related publications, including replication studies. Across the neighborhood it highlights:

  • Shared conditions, genes, and chemicals, linked from MedGen, NCBI Gene, and PubChem
  • NIH funding
  • Citation relationships
  • Retractions and reviews

More than 29 million PubMed publications are represented. The tool identifies connections between publications only; it does not judge study quality or decide whether a finding has been successfully replicated.
