Science Babes and Science Hunks in Cinema
This is another republish from I, science. The babes are my work and the hunks are Natalie Mills’ (MSc Science Communication, Imperial College).
What image do you have of scientists? Often the scientists on screen are stereotyped as geeks and/or comic relief such as Doc Brown in Back to the Future or Q in James Bond. Rarely do we get to see sexy heroic scientists but when it does happen...
