In 2017-18, the community was testing and revising the new scientonomic workflow geared towards the piecemeal and transparent advancement of our communal knowledge.
In 2019, the community organized its inaugural [https://scientoconference.com/conference2019/ conference] which featured [[Hasok Chang]], [[Jutta Schickore]], and [[Lee McIntyre]] as its keynotes. The proceedings of the conference are published in 2022.[[CiteRef::Barseghyan et al. (Eds.) (2022)]] In 2019 and 2020, the community developed a diagrammatic notation for visualizing epistemic entities and relations. Various visualization techniques were developed into a systematic diagrammatic notation in May 2019, during the ''Visualizing Worldviews'' project funded by ''Jackman Humanities Institute'' as part of their ''Scholars-in-Residence'' program.[[CiteRef::Palider et al. (2021)]] In the May 2020 edition of the program, the notation was applied to high-profile present-day debates on intelligent design, gender, climate change, and race.
The community holds its [https://youtu.be/71owGRMclu8?list=PLnOtdGODiXLQdrezPypM7o0JUVeNoxPVw annual meetings] in January or February. These annual meetings are traditionally hosted by the University of Toronto's ''Faculty Club''.
* Launching a pilot [[Tree of Knowledge Project|tree of knowledge]] project to develop the schema for a historical database, design the respective website, as well as to fill the database with sample high-quality historical data to test the platform and showcase its potential to the broader community of historians, philosophers, and sociologists of science.
* Creating a full-fledged [[Tree of Knowledge Project|tree of knowledge]] website and a comprehensive historical database that would eventually document belief systems of diverse epistemic agents across time periods, field of inquiry, and geographic regions.
