Shortly after the award, a number of papers coauthored by L\u00f3pez-Ot\u00edn were denounced on PubPeer, an internet forum that allows users to discuss and point out errors in published articles. <em>Nature<\/em> responded by opening an investigation into 98 articles published by the group between 2012 and 2019, and found problems with the images in 18 of them. The publishers of <em>Nature<\/em> and the judges of the award analyzed the instances of manipulation and concluded that as the corresponding author of nine of the papers, L\u00f3pez-Ot\u00edn&#8217;s behavior was inconsistent with the high-quality mentoring distinguished by the award. According to a statement by <em>Nature&#8217;s<\/em> editor in chief Magdalena Skipper and the Springer Nature group&#8217;s editor in chief Philip Campbell, the decision to revoke the award is not meant as a judgment on the validity of L\u00f3pez-Ot\u00edn&#8217;s work, which was not the subject of the investigation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The journal <em>Nature<\/em> decided to revoke an award it gave to Spanish biochemist Carlos L\u00f3pez-Ot\u00edn in 2017 in recognition of his work as a mentor for young researchers","protected":false},"author":475,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[155],"tags":[],"coauthors":[785],"class_list":["post-329786","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-good-practices"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/329786","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/475"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=329786"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/329786\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":329791,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/329786\/revisions\/329791"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=329786"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=329786"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=329786"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=329786"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
