Lack of science support fails Brazil

On 10 September 2010, Science published the Report “Human SIRT6 promotes DNA end resection through CtIP deacetylation” by A. Kaidi, B. T. Weinert, C. Choudhary, and S. P. Jackson (1). On 19 August 2018, the Research Governance and Integrity Officer of the corresponding author’s institution, Cambridge University, together with the corresponding author, notified Science that the institution was launching a preliminary investigation under the Misconduct in Research policy. They have since notified us that the university has concluded that there is a prima facie case that requires formal investigation. Science is publishing this Editorial Expression of Concern to alert our readers while we await the outcome of the investigation.
