✨ We discuss biases and misperceptions in funding decisions.
✨ We argue that decision makers should heed existing research about reducing bias in decision making processes.
✨ Leaner procedures could lower entry biases and reviewer load.
✨ We need more research on research funding - and evidence-based science policy that preserves academic freedom.
