Error In the lower plate in Hebrew, the word RNAI appears everywhere, while only the first time it should be RNAI, the other times only RNA (otherwise the content is completely wrong).
In the English section, the scientist’s name is misspelled (the correct form appears in the upper plate).
In the lower plate in both the Hebrew and English text, the punctuation marks are in the wrong places.
