Scientists do have beliefs. Scientific beliefs are based upon scientific observation and analysis. If people have beliefs which are not based upon scientific observation and analysis, then those beliefs are not relevant to science.

Don't ignore facts that contradict your position
Opinions are different than scientific hypothesis. A hypthesis is an idea that can (or at least we think can) be tested by the scientific method. Opinions can be anything... personal beliefs, religious ideas, dilusions... really anything and like all people, scientists can have opinions. Opinions really have nothing to do with science and because they are not scientifically testable, some may feel that science is ignoring their opinions.
Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs when a cohesive group prioritizes consensus over critical thinking, leading to poor decision-making. It often results in the suppression of dissenting viewpoints and the avoidance of realistic appraisal of alternatives. To conclude on groupthink, one should look for signs such as a lack of open discussion, the presence of a dominant leader, and the group’s tendency to ignore outside opinions. Recognizing and addressing these factors can help mitigate the risks associated with groupthink.
confirmation bias
The perseverance effect refers to the tendency for beliefs to persist even after evidence discrediting them is presented. This can occur due to cognitive biases such as the confirmation bias, where people seek out or interpret information in a way that confirms their preexisting beliefs. In the context of the perseverance effect, the confirmation bias can reinforce and perpetuate false beliefs, leading individuals to ignore contradictory evidence.
Science focuses on evidence and observable facts rather than beliefs and opinions. Beliefs and opinions can influence how individuals interpret scientific data, but the process of scientific inquiry is based on empirical evidence and testing hypotheses through systematic research.
A conviction bias is a cognitive bias where individuals tend to interpret information in a way that confirms their preexisting beliefs or convictions. This bias can lead to selective exposure to information that aligns with one's beliefs, as well as a tendency to dismiss or ignore evidence that contradicts those beliefs. It can result in closed-mindedness and hinder critical thinking skills.
Mollification, a critical thinking error, refers to the tendency to downplay or ignore evidence that contradicts one's beliefs or opinions in order to maintain comfort or avoid cognitive dissonance. This can hinder objective evaluation of information and lead to biased reasoning. It is important to be aware of this tendency and actively seek out and consider alternative perspectives and information.
Superstitious beliefs really don't affect science and technology because both are based on evidence. Since superstitious beliefs can't be proven, scientists ignore them.
Common examples of flawed thinking include confirmation bias, where we seek out information that confirms our existing beliefs, and cognitive dissonance, where we ignore evidence that contradicts our beliefs. To recognize and address these flaws, we can practice critical thinking skills, seek out diverse perspectives, and be open to changing our beliefs based on new evidence.

A denialist would be someone who denies what others know to be true. Such people have an impressive capacity to ignore evidence in order to cling to their own obsessive beliefs.
