What laymen can do is educate themselves on how science works; the process behind it.
You can also educate yourself on a particular aspect of science. You do not have to be university trained, you can be an autodidact. If fact, I would heartily encourage it; however should you choose this, be aware of the sources that you study, the basis for their work, the papers that they have published, and the peer review that those papers have received.
