Verification experiment on STAP cells to be terminated

TOKYO, Japan - Embattled scientist Haruko Obokata at Japan's Riken research institute wipes away tears during a press conference in April 2014 at an Osaka hotel, as doubts emerged about so-called STAP cell papers she co-authored. Riken will announce on Dec. 19, 2014, that it has decided to end the verification experiment over her research as the cells cannot be produced. (Kyodo)
