* Binomial test was used to determine if the percentage of women or men in the applicant or awardee pool was different from 50%.

† Distribution comparisons between males and females were performed with the 2-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.

‡ Values shown are averages.

§ Pearson’s chi-square test was used to assess sex differences.

¶ Applications with incomplete values for direct costs were excluded from cost calculations.

** Only full-time trainees appointed to FY2008 competing awards were included; trainees are not NIH awardees because the trainees are selected by the institution.
