So far we could not find any stem cells regarding Dr. Hwang's 2005 paper that genetically match the DNA of patients. Dr. Hwang's team doesn't have scientific data to prove that it has produced such stem cells.
Stem cells with DNA matching with patient tissues regarding the 2005 paper were not found. And it is the panel's judgment that Professor Hwang 's team does not have the scientific data to prove that they (patient-specific stem cells) were made.
The panel couldn't find stem cells that match patients' DNA . . . and it believes that Hwang's team doesn't have scientific data to prove that (such stem cells) were made.
We learned that the two cell lines from which Hwang fabricated photos of the other nine cells for the Science paper do not match the DNA of patients who contributed ... cells.
We commissioned additional tests on more samples of the stem cells featured on the 2004 Science article.
We have asked three independent labs to conduct DNA tests on the samples, and all three came out with the same conclusion. None of the stem cells were patient-specific.
Whether the two cells were tailor-made can be found out after the panel's DNA tests are completed.
The errors in data in (Hwang's) 2005 paper in (journal) Science are not simple mistakes, but it was an intentional fabrication to inflate the number of stem cells from two to 11.
This panel couldn't find stem cells that match patients' DNA regarding the 2005 paper, and it believes that Hwang's team didn't secure scientific data to prove that.
