  • Description: The GRANteD project, with this, releases a report concerning gender disparities in grant allocation and academic careers. The report consists of two paper manuscripts using the same type of longitudinal data and Event History Analysis to explain the making of a professor's career, considering performance in the form of grants andpublications. The first part is a Swedish study that uses the career of 2,727 researchers who received their PhD from 1985-to 1994 within two faculty areas - medical sciences and natural sciences - from all fourteen Swedish universities.Careers have been followed for over 40 years (until 2020). The definition of “professorship” is the one used by Swedish Statistics. The second part is a Dutch study of 971 researchers that obtained their degrees from 2000 to 2005 from one of the Dutch universities and covers all several faculties. Careers have been followed for over 16 years. The professorship is defined as “full professors” only. Results from the Swedish study indicate that women tend to stay in academia more than men; secondly, a consistent male advantage in grant success in the area of the natural sciences, which is not transferred to a female disadvantage in time to professorship. Thirdly, in the medical sciences, the results indicate that men had an advantage concerning grant success before 1997, but not in the periods after 1997, and, fourthly, concerning time to professorship, there seems to be an advantage for women when taking merits (grants and publications performance) into account. Results from the Netherlands indicate that women leave academia earlier and more often than men, and women are less often and later appointed as full professors. Furthermore, the exit from academia is not related to publication performance; finally, that performance positively affects the probability of achieving the title full professor.
