Bibliographical note

Funding Information:
There are three pillars of the science infrastructure that need to coordinate policies to achieve excellence in science (2). The first, funding agencies, encourage integrating SG&DA at the beginning of the research process. In 2003, the European Commission (EC) endorsed “questioning systematically whether, and in what sense, sex and gender are relevant in the objectives and methodology of projects.” Other public-funding agencies followed suit with policies implemented at the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR; 2010), German Research Foundation (DFG; 2020), and National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF; 2021), among others (6).
