A field that studies science as it is practiced in, mediated by, and transformed through digital technologies—computer networks, simulation, databases, collaboration tools, and artificial intelligence. Cyberscience examines how the internet has changed scientific communication, how simulation replaces or supplements experiment, how big data reshapes discovery, and how open access challenges traditional publishing. It’s not just science with computers, but science fundamentally reconfigured by cyber-infrastructure. The field is interdisciplinary, drawing on computer science, sociology of science, and philosophy of technology.
Example: “Cyberscience research showed how particle physics moved from individual experiments to globally distributed collaborations analyzing petabytes of data—a transformation of what science even is.”

Get the cyberscene mug.A broad umbrella term encompassing the family of disciplines that study the intersections of digital technologies with human activity: cyberculture (the culture of online spaces), cyberanthropology (how digital communities form and function), cyberphilosophy (ontology and ethics of the virtual), social cybersciences (digital sociology, political economy of platforms), human cybersciences (digital humanities, human‑computer interaction), cognitive cybersciences (digital cognition, AI, extended mind). The cybersciences treat the digital not as a separate realm but as a new condition for all human sciences.
Example: “The cybersciences program included anthropologists studying Twitch communities, philosophers working on AI ethics, and cognitive scientists studying how search engines reshape memory.”
