Komuniti saintifik

Komuniti saintifik ialah rangkaian saintis yang berinteraksi. Ia termasuk banyak "sub-komuniti" yang bekerja di bidang sains tertentu, dan dalam institusi tertentu; aktiviti disiplin dan lintas-institusi juga penting. Objektiviti dijangka dapat dicapai melalui kaedah saintifik. Semakan sejawat, melalui perbincangan dan perdebatan dalam jurnal dan persidangan, membantu dalam objektiviti ini dengan mempertahankan mutu metodologi penyelidikan dan tafsiran hasil.^[1]
