As a grant reviewer and journal editor I will want to see SABV recognized by work and will bash grants and desk reject papers that only include males without justification, as I have always done. Peer reviewers can still require rigorous science, which includes the examination of sex differences.

Been debating about whether to run my account here the same way as my bird account or to keep it more professional. While I'm still debating - go Bills.
