| description |
<p>Sex-disaggregated data on the success rates of applications to the individual grants at the European Research Council and selected national
funding agencies show similar outcomes for women and men. There are large
differences in success rates between countries and in all countries with
applicants to the European Research Council men are applying
disproportionally more (and women less) compared to the demography of the
researchers in the higher education sectors in the respective countries.
Therefore, the proportion of women funded is even lower than their
representation in the fields of Natural Science and Engineering and
Technology. Some contributing factors are discussed and the question on how
the current and future success rates could be interpreted is raised.</p> |
