Cell is the most rigorous journal in the world. For a paper like this I’m sure they put the group through the ringer. It says they submitted it in October of last year and worked on revisions until May.
I don’t have access to journal subscriptions anymore but I’ll try to get creative for this one.
Yeah I guess I mean that’s an obvious concern and this is an unbelievably prestigious journal with an insanely high bar for publication. It’s unlikely that they didn’t adequately address that concern, it’s just impossible to know how without being able to read the paper.
