This blog post by Russian-Ukrainian biologist explains, why this study is wrong in many ways: http://progenes.livejournal.com/90883.html http://progenes.livejournal.com/90883.html (Russian)
"Conclusion: it is obvious that hamsters are breeding poorly and even dying because of some unknown causes, but this "study" can't tell anything about this causes"
- godDLL 17y agoThe "control group of hamsters" being five couples is very reassuring. They can't possibly be wrong, with a sample of such epic proportions! The original article goes on to say that "hair grew in the mouth of animals", and so on, all to 'suggest' a big government-sponsored research programme. These guys may need jobs badly, but this is just sad. Russia currently is living through a wave of blatantly bad science, on the scale of U.S. religious superstition wave. (look up one "Петрик")
- rbanffy 17y agoNo. These guys don't need jobs. They obviously need education and also to stop posing as scientists unless they adhere to acceptable standards.
