Source: "Sex as a biological variable (SABV) is a key part of the new National Institutes of Health (NIH) initiative to enhance reproducibility through rigor and transparency...Having greater awareness of the roles that sex and gender play in health and disease will help the entire medical scientific enterprise achieve more clarity and enhance rigor and reproducibility.[1], "To produce precise and reproducible results applicable for both men and women, sex should be considered as an important biological variable from basic and preclinical research." [2]
- ALT1:... that the European Commission, Canadian Institutes of Health Research, and the National Institutes of Health have all instituted sex as a biological variable policies to enhance scientific rigor and reproducibility? Source: "Recently, funding organizations including the European Commission (EC), Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), and the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) put efforts into influencing researchers to integrate sex and gender in the whole study processes from hypothesis to publication."

This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and the article is neutral. I rephrased a couple of sentences which were too close to the source but otherwise detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:29, 8 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

How, just how?[edit]

The influence of the Y-chromosome on the body is clear, even to a layman like me. The history of "Sex as NOT a biological variable" is much more interesting.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.173.226.152 (talk • contribs)
