Dear Dr Zhou，
Thanks for your email regarding the manuscript by Milland et al that was recently published in ICB. The ICB policy regarding refutations is below：
'We recognize our responsibility to correct errors that we have previously published. Our policy is to consider refutations (readers' criticisms) of primary research papers， and to publish them (in concise form) if and only if the author provides good evidence that an important claim or claims in the original paper were incorrect. Refutations are peer-reviewed， and where possible they are sent to at least one of the referees who reviewed the original paper. A copy is usually also sent to the corresponding author of the original paper for signed comments. Refutations are typically published in the 'Correspondence' section of Immunology and Cell Biology， sometimes with a brief response from the original authors. Some submitted refutations are eventually published as retractions by the paper's authors. In both cases， the published refutation or retraction is linked online to the original paper， and the published paper is linked online to the refutation or retraction.'
