Summary

This addendum announced that Uppsala University's investigation found both authors of a high-profile microplastics-fish larval behavior study committed research misconduct, confirming the earlier retraction of the Science paper and emphasizing the importance of data integrity in microplastic research.

Science has been informed that Uppsala University has completed its investigation into the study by Lonnstedt and Eklov, published in Science on 3 June 2016 and retracted on 3 May 2017. (The Retraction ran online on 3 May and in print on 26 May 2017.) The investigation has found that both authors
