Suspects copying around STAP cell works
The professor of Yamanashi University, Wakayama Teruhiko on March 10 suddenly asked to withdraw the thesis which he named with another scientist related to the 'STAP' versatile cell in which the images were used. Using this thesis has many irrational points.

According to the Japanese Institute of Physical and Chemical Research (Riken), there has been no unusual change in the main content of STAP research at the present time, but the institute still "retracts to conduct investigation". .
STAP stem cell research work is the work of female scientist Haruko Obokata, 31, of the Riken Center for Research in Renewal and Development and Professor Teruhiko.
Ms. Haruko and the team leader posted the study in Nature in late January 2014.
However, the problem became serious when the experts discovered the natural imperfections on the image and appeared rumors on the Internet the past few days about the question of citing the sentence from a thesis Other without permission.
This incident caused Riken and Nature magazine to investigate the incident.
