方舟子遇袭与肖传国的被捕将学术界反腐推到了一个新的高度，这是网络学术打假的功劳。网络克服了传统媒体与举报制度的诸多障碍，以“新闻事件”的形式将学术造假行为公之于众，并借助当事人及其支持者的积极互动，进行“虚拟审判”，形成强大的网上舆论，直接或间接地影响了对学术造假者的处理。在此过程中，作为对学术成果负有审查与评价责任的学术共同体，暴露出的腐败与失职行为，严重损害了其在公众心目中的形象。作为“社会的良心”，学术共同体如何加强自身建设，重塑自我，渡过信任危机？网络学术打假给我们的启示是：建立一个基于信息公开与公众广泛参与基础上的监督机制。%The fight against academic fraud has been pushed to a new level after Fang Zhouzi was attacked and Xiao Chuanguo was arrested, which is an achievement of using the network to fight against academic fraud. Network overcomes many obstacles of traditional media and reporting systems, makes known to the public the acts of academic fraud in the form of the "news event", and conducts a "virtual trial" with the positive interaction with the persons concerned and their supporters. All these consequently create a strong online public opinion, directly or indirectly affect the handling of the academic fraud. In this pro- cess, the academic community that bears the responsibility of the examination and evaluation of academic achievements has even been exposed to commit corruption and dereliction of duty, which seriously damages its public image. As the "conscience of society", how can the academic community strengthen its serf-construction, rebuild itself and tide over the crisis of confi- dence? The use of the network to fight against academic fraud gives us the enlightenment that we should establish a supervision mechanism on the basis of information disclosure and the extensive public participation.
