Abstract

DOI 10.1007/S12079-011-0152-0 It has been recently brought to the Editor-in-chief’s attention that Professor Konstantin Meyl has submitted and published two articles that are highly similar: [1] Meyl, K., 2012: DNA and Cell Resonance: Magnetic Waves Enable Cell Communication, DNA and Cell Biology 31 (4), 422–426. Received for publication August 15, 2011 / Received in revised form September 2, 2011 / Accepted September 2, 2011 [2] Meyl, K., 2012: Task of the introns, cell communication explained by field physics, Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling 6 (1), 53–58 Received for publication August 20, 2011 / Accepted: September 1, 2011 / Published online: September 18, 2011 Professor Meyl had submitted his work to the Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling clearly stating it was at that time not being considered for publication elsewhere. After thorough investigation the senior editorial team of the Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling must conclude that a similar manuscript was submitted to the journal ‘DNA and Cell Biology’ before the submission to the Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling and that this similar manuscript was still under consideration by ‘DNA and Cell Biology’ at the time of the submission to the Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling. This goes against the policy of the Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling. The Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling will retract this manuscript. The author has been informed about the reasoning behind the retraction decision and did not agree with the retraction.
