Tumor tropism of intravenously injected human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived neural stem cells and their gene therapy application in a metastatic breast cancer model. 10.1002/stem.1051. Stem Cells. (2012) 30: 1021–1029.] This article has been retracted at the request of Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology, Singapore. The author Mr. Lam DH had confessed voluntarily that he manipulated animal survival data presented in Figures 4C, 4D, and 5C of the article to make the results statistically significant. An investigation committee was convened to investigate into this matter. The committee has now completed the investigation and accepted Lam's admission that he had falsified his research data in the figures.
