Well，he made it up．All of it，apparently．According to a report published on December 29th by Seoul National University in South Korea，its erstwhile employee Hwang W00—suk，who had tendered his resignation six days earlier，deliberately falsified his data in the paper on human embryonic stem cells that he and 24 colleagues published in Science in May 2005．
　　In particular，Dr Hwang claimed he had created l l colonies of human embryonic stem cells genetically matched to specific patients．He had already admitted that nine of these were bogus，but had said that this was the result of an honest mistake，and that the other two were still the real McCoy．A panel of experts appointed by the university to investigate the matter，however，disagreed．They found that DNA fingerprint traces conducted on the stem—cell lines reported in the paper had been manipulated to make it seem as if aH l l lines were tailored to specific patients．In fact，none of them matched the volunteers with spinal—cord injuries and diabetes who had donated skin cells for the work．To obtain his promisin9“results”，Dr Hwang had sent for testing two samples from each donor，rather than a sample from the donor and a sample of the cells into which the donor’s DNA had supposedly been transplanted．
　　The panel also found that a second claim in the paper--that only l85 eggs were used to create the ll stem—cell lines——was false．The investigators said the actual number of eggs used was far larger，in the thousands，although they were unable to determine an exact figure．
　　The reason this double fraud is such a blow is that human embryonic stem-cell research has great expectations．Stem cells，which have not yet been programmed to specialise and can thus，in principle，grow into any tissue or organ。could be used to treat illnesses ranging from diabetes to Parkinson’s disease．⑥They might even be able to fix spinal—cord inj uries．And stem cells cloned from a patient would not be rej ected as foreign by his immune system．
　　Dr Hwang’s reputation，of course，is in tatters．The university is now investigating two other groundbrcaking experiments he claims to have conducted--the creation of the world’s first cloned human embrvo and the extrac．tion of stem cells from it，and the creation of the world’s first cloned d09．He is also in trouble for breaching ethical guidelines by using eggs donated by members of his research team． [410 words]
