Tracking the growth of scientific knowledge is a challenging but integral part of scientific inquiries, scholarly communication, and science of science. Facts, consensus, confidence, and objectivity are among the most desirable elements and instruments in representing and communicating scientific knowledge. In his talk, Dr. Chaomei Chenpresent presents a promising analytic framework for the science of science research by focusing on the role of uncertainties at various stages of scientific inquiries. He will demonstrate how contradictions, controversies, inconsistencies, and a variety of other forms of uncertainties play fundamental roles in the growth and update of scientific knowledge.<\/p>

He will also illustrate how researchers may benefit from the uncertainty-centric perspective by revisiting key research questions that have been studied from conventional perspectives, especially with references to the interpretation and re-interpretation of emerging fields, intellectual landmarks, critical paths, turning points, and boundary-spanning bridges.<\/p>
