Correction and Retraction Policies

The following are categories of post-publication corrections and updates for peer-reviewed and review primary research articles and certain types of non-peer-reviewed articles. Substantial errors to Supplementary Information and Extended Data are corrected in the same manner as amendments to the primary article.
