TEMA FORSKNING SOM VÄCKER KÄNSLOR När Elin Bommenel som 28-åring skrev sin kandidatuppsats om kariesexperimenten på Vipeholm, insåg hon inte hur stor påverkan det skulle ha på hennes liv. År efter år fortsätter Vipeholmsforskningen att engagera. – Det har väckt så mycket känslor att jag nu ska utbilda mig till kognitiv beteendeterapeut för att kunna hantera dem, säger hon.
