Resumen:
ESTE TRABAJO CORRESPONDE AL CAMPO DISCIPLINAR DE LA ANTROPOLOGÍA FÍSICA (DISCIPLINA DESAGREGADA 5701-ANTROPOLOGÍA FÍSICA), QUE NO SE ENCUENTRA ENTRE LAS OPCIONES A ELEGIR EN EL SITIO DE "CAMPO DISCIPLINAR DE LA PUBLICACIÓN".In the early stages of a scientific career, age can be a determinant factor for gaining a fellowship or a research position. This paper addresses the issue of arbitrariness in such criterion, in the case of Argentina’s policy of scientific assessment. There are specific age limits for the lowest levels in the hierarchy, and even though sometimes exceptions can be made, it could lead to discrimination or unfair evaluations towards the candidates of both extremes of the distribution.
