		Robert Boyle, the eminent 17th-century chemist and natural philosopher, is credited with the earliest use of the phrase "invisible college." Boyle used this term in reference to his scientist colleagues in Oxford and London, who met informally to discuss their research and later joined him in founding the Royal Society in 1660.
		The invisible college has since come to denote for all scientists their extensive network of colleagues, associates and research collaborators around the world.
		It is through this informal, interpersonal network that scientists stay current with breaking research developments, share new and improved lab methods, learn about upcoming conferences and grant opportunities, exchange preprints and reprints of research papers, and generally keep abreast of news about their colleagues and profession.
