Griffin has updated the 2011 direct2experts: http://direct2experts.org/IntegratedDemo

http://research.icts.uiowa.edu/polyglot/googleSearch.jsp
which interrogates one of three different configurations of Google CSEs. The first two interrogate the query interfaces of the 50-some direct2experts sites, either targeting people or just taking what comes back. The third covers the 61 CTSA sites linked off CTSACentral, plus CTSACentral itself.
Please also note that this is using the free interface, so we're capped a 100 queries a day, and only 10 results per query, so I'm not letting you past the first page of results…

The CTSAsearch prototype implementation of federated search is now available, using Linked Open Data published by members of the CTSA Consortium and other interested parties. To try it out, go to http://research.icts.uiowa.edu/polyglot
CTSAsearch currently indexes 41,367 persons and their 286,066 publications from Cornell, Florida, Iowa and Northwestern. Indexed content includes
- Persons and their associated properties (name, research statement, etc.)
- Academic Articles for each person with associated properties. Where DOIs or PMIDs exist additional information is added from MEDLINE, including
- Abstract
- Keywords
- MeSH terms
- Chemicals
- Genes
...
The CTSA federated search is a project of several servers being simultaneously searched and aggregated.
