The father of a primary school student who won third prize at a national science contest last year for work on colorectal cancer has acknowledged and apologized for his “over-involvement” in his child’s project, he said in a statement on ScienceNet.cn on Wednesday.
The winning project focuses on the function of the C10orf67 gene in the development of colorectal cancer. It received third prize at the 34th China Adolescents Science and Technology Innovation Contest (CASTIC) and first prize at the 34th Yunnan Province Adolescents Science and Technology Innovative Project Contest.
On the same day, an official announcement from the office of CASTIC's organizing committee declared the prize canceled, recalling the medal and certificate awarded to the sixth-grader.
According to professionals on CASTIC’s investigative team, the project violated its independent work requirement. A comprehensive review of the project found it of a professionalism outside of the cognitive level and writing ability of a sixth-grader, making it impossible that the winning research paper was produced independently.
