Community detection is a very appealing topic in network analysis. A precise definition of community is still lacking, so the comparison of different methods is not a simple task. The paper shows exploratory results by adopting two wellknown community detection methods and a new proposal to discover groups of scientists in the co-authorship network of Italian academic statisticians.
