@tomstafford@mastodon.online True, the more diverse applicant pool most likely derives from encouragement. The recipients of awards are also more diverse, which could be because randomization interferes with positive feedback and networks in peer review, or because the applicant's pool is more diverse, or both.

@ingorohlfing@mastodon.social the first depends a lot on our assumptions about how much such networks distort peer review. We suspect they do, but can't be sure how much!
