I might be wrong, but I had a look at the original paper's methods and the experimental process seems to be based around producing many p-values and then trawling looking for significance. They don't seem to correct for multiple-testing outcomes though. This resembles what's been described as p-hacking (http://www.nature.com/news/scientific-method-statistical-errors-1.14700 http://www.nature.com/news/scientific-method-statistical-err...) I could well be missing something though, so please correct me if I'm off the mark.
