In October, 2065438+200465438+/kloc-0, the research team led by Haruko Kobao of the Regenerative Science Research Center of Japan Institute of Physical Chemistry announced that a brand-new "universal cell" STAP cell had been successfully manufactured. Later, due to the doubts of fellow scientists, the Japanese Institute of Physical Chemistry launched an investigation into its research process.

On April 1 2004, the investigation committee of the Institute of Physical Chemistry released the investigation results on April 2065438, and found that Xiao Haruko tampered with and forged STAP cell paper. [ 1]

The Japanese Institute of Physical Chemistry officially announced that this so-called "STAP" cell could not be replicated, which obviously put an end to this controversial research.
