Knowledge and science are intrinsically linked through the etymology of epistemology [1] and the philosophical framework of naturalized epistemology, which posits that knowledge should be studied as a branch of science [2]. Furthermore, science serves as a foundational tool for grounding the study of knowledge [3] and establishing the principles used to determine the truth of knowledge [4].
