SEOUL (Reuters) - A South Korean scientist whose landmark paper on tailored embryonic stem cells has been debunked still says he can produce the cells and thinks people are out to discredit him, a newspaper reported on Saturday. 

A South Korean panel dealt a devastating blow to disgraced scientist Hwang Woo-suk on Thursday. It concluded that his team, once celebrated for a breakthrough in attempts to develop genetically specific material for medical use, had not proved they had produced the tailored embryonic stem cells.
