Statsvetaren Anders ­Uhlin menar att de indragna anslagen till utvecklingsforskning är ett utslag av ideologisk styrning från regeringen. Foto: Minna Wallén-Widung Vetenskapsrådets indragna anslag till utvecklingsforskning har drabbat forskare vid Lunds universitet hårt. – Det här har vi sett i andra länder där ytterhögerpartier har haft stort inflytande, säger Anders ­Uhlin, professor i statsvete

Forskarna förvånades bland annat över att igelkottarna innehöll så många olika miljögifter och så höga halter av bland annat bly. Bild: Istockphoto/Maren Winter. Bly. PCB. Bekämpningsmedel och bromerade flamskyddsmedel. Samt plasttillsatser och tungmetaller. Det var vad forskare i Lund hittade när de samlade in döda igelkottar för att undersöka vilka miljöföroreningar som finns i urbana miljöer. U

Om beta-amyloid ansamlas och bildar plack mellan nervcellerna, kan det störa kommunikationen. Och om tau klumpar ihop sig inuti nervcellerna, leder det till att transportvägarna förstörs och cellerna dör.
