Orchestras had a gender bias with tryouts. They solved it by putting the musician to be evaluated behind a screen. No doubt there is a similar problem with research funding. For a variety of reasons it would be more difficult here but no less beneficial if it could be done.

I think the blind auditions turned out to favor men; Andrew Gilman wrote about this.
Best to assume “nothing holds up”.
I don't know if that is true but it's my understanding that when the evaluators weren't blinded, it favored men more.
