Abstract

replying to S.-H. Lee, A. C. Kwan & Y. Dan Nature508,http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nature13128(2014)

Solving discrepancies in the literature is critical for the advancement of science, and the Comment by Lee et al.¹ is thus welcome. It clarifies that there is no contradiction between the earlier study of Lee et al.² and our study³. The disagreement is in the interpretation of the results and in the model used to fit the data.
