Change history

  • 30 April 2015

    In the version of this article initially published, citations were given for Supplementary Software 1 and 2; these files have been removed from the website and the citations replaced by ones for figshare and GitHub (see supplementary information for explanation). The Software files have been available on figshare since publication and are now also available at GitHub (https://github.com/baruchbarzel/NatureBiotech-31-720), the link for which we have added to the paper. The changes have been made in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.
