In this paper we present an agent-based model (ABM) of scientific inquiry aimed at
investigating how different social networks impact the efficiency of scientists in acquiring
knowledge. As such, the ABM is a computational tool for tackling issues in the domain of
scientific methodology and science policy. In contrast to existing ABMs of science, our model
aims to represent the argumentative dynamics that underlies scientific practice. To this end
we employ abstract argumentation theory as the core design feature of the model.
