Inhalt: Key messages: Gender equity in research can contribute to social progress, scientific workforce sustainability, and the quality of science. Research funders can be critical actors in advancing gender equity through policy interventions and funding incentives. Linking NIHR funding to Athena SWAN gender equality action plans has been associated with a rise in the number of women in mid-level leadership positions and the proportion of funding going to women. More research funders should trial policy interventions and funding incentives for women in science and evaluate their effect.
