Robert Hoffmann - A gene network for navigating the literature: "A network of genes and proteins extends through the scientific literature, touching on phenotypes, pathologies and gene function. We report the development of an information system that provides this network as a natural way of accessing the more than ten million abstracts in PubMed. By using genes and proteins as hyperlinks between sentences and abstracts, we convert the information in PubMed into one navigable resource and bring all the advantages of the internet to scientific literature investigation."

I'm quoting this for two reasons: first, I have a (marginal) professional interest in bioinformatics and second, the system is implemented using Apache Cocoon.
