Science's Next Wave this week publishes the results of the UK's office of
science and technology's study into gender bias in the awarding of
research grants.

The study found that men and women had "braodly comparable" success rates
but that far fewer men than women were applying for grants.

The full results of the study, along with a related news item can be found
