Sixth grader's internet-famous science project may have been plagiarized

That’s the follow-up paper, not the original from 2011. It seems the father, who was well aware of the original research as a colleage and (non-technical) co-author of the original paper, is the one who has been hyping his daughter’s work and obscuring the original.

There’s some speculation and overview in this comment from yesterday.
