Forbes stated, "But I decided not to include Andraka on the list, overriding the recommendation of an expert judging panel, because the work was not yet published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal. It is by published work that scientists are judged.  I still think this was the right decision. In fact, when Andraka volunteered to share a draft of a paper that he does plan to submit to a scientific journal, my concerns deepened."

Case in point: Jack Andraka, who was 15 years old when he identified a revolutionary tool in recognising pancreatic cancer, would never have made his discovery without access to online journals. Academic journals are often locked up by publishing companies who charge a bomb for access, despite the research usually being publicly funded. Andraka’s life saving discovery is a shining example of how freedom of education benefits everyone. The more people who have access to education, the higher the chance of humans finding solutions to our problems. And when it comes to cancer, these solutions are life or death.https://www.thecanary.co/uk/2016/07/29/jeremy-corbyn-destroys-one-biggest-myths-leadership-just-30-seconds-video/

While promising the project really was extremely preliminary and is by no means as sophisticated as some stories say it is,” Andraka writes me via email.  “I realize that in retrospect that it was just a high school science fair project and it was a proof of concept experiment and initially I thought that it could get on the market in 1-2 years however I've learned so much over the course of this journey and realized that it will in reality take a lot longer than this.” A lot longer.

But one piece of research is missing — Jack Andraka’s published results. In fact, this is one of the major complaints about the Andraka story — he has never published a peer-reviewed paper of his findings, despite being an advocate of open science and free information. Instead, he seems to be focused on exploiting his claims — taking more than $100,000 in prize money for his unpublished claims, working with Intel and other corporations to develop a commercial over-the-counter test based on his approach, and possibly even filing a patent for the invention.

In addition, a carbon-nanotube based sensor similar to Andraka's was reported in 2009 by Wang et al., a group of researchers at Jiangnan University and University of Michigan,[17] and a carbon-nanotube based sensor for applications in cancer diagnosis was reported in a 2008 paper by Shao et al. that used a methodology similar to Andraka's.

In 2012, Andraka filed a "World Patent" under the Patent Cooperation Treaty,[4] which resulted in a preliminary search to determine patentability.[19] The examination found "a lack of inventive step" [20] and prior art in US Patents 7824925 and 8110369.

The novelty of Andraka's work has also been questioned. In 2005, seven years before Andraka won the Intel ISEF, a group of researchers at Jefferson Medical College and the University of Delaware reported a carbon-nanotube based sensor for use in breast cancer diagnostics that uses a methodology nearly identical to Andraka's purportedly novel methodology.
