Description: The present project offers an analysis of gender distributions in publicly available federal funding data from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) of Canada that are specific to cognitive psychology/neuroscience. To the extent that the leaky pipeline metaphor applies to women in cognitive science within Canada, we would expect the relative proportions of women and men who receive NSERC funding at different professional stages to shift over the professional lifespan in a way that progressively disadvantages women cognitive scientists.
