Science Utopia? Closed-Loop LLM Simulation of Academic Research Ecosystems
The paper introduces SciUtopia, a closed‑loop large‑language‑model simulation framework that models the evolving academic research ecosystem, including research direction, collaboration, publication, peer review, funding, and researcher attrition. Running 61 simulation worlds, the system simulates over 40,000 researchers and 1.2 million LLM‑generated peer reviews, revealing that rejection‑driven resubmission increases reviewer burden, cautious exploration balances citation impact with career success, and resource inequality can arise without early‑funding advantage.

Merit or networks? What decides where research is published
Does scientific publishing reward the quality of ideas or the advantage of connections? The question is universal to prestige-driven science, yet it has resisted decades of study because a paper's quality could not be gauged ahead of its publication fate without using that fate as the yardstick.
