6. Over the past decade, before pursuing a particular line of research, scientists (including
C.G.B.) in the haematology and oncology department at the biotechnology firm Amgen in
Thousand Oaks, California, tried to confirm published findings related to that work. Fifty-
three papers were deemed 'landmark' studies. It was acknowledged from the outset that
some of the data might not hold up, because papers were deliberately selected that
described something completely new, such as fresh approaches to targeting cancers or
alternative clinical uses for existing therapeutics. Nevertheless, scientific findings were
confirmed in only 6 (11%) cases. Even knowing the limitations of preclinical research, this
was a shocking result.

…within 24 hours of launch we were stunned to be receiving almost 70,000 classifications an hour. In the end, more than 50 million classifications were received by the project during its first year, contributed by more than 150,000 people.from: http://www.galaxyzoo.org/#/story
