25 Scientific musos or 25 musical scientists

Science is fun, but there are times when even the most dedicated begoggled labcoat wearing bench monkey has to relax and lots of science types seem particularly drawn to playing music. Now, I’m not saying any of these people are bench monkeys, but they do all play music, as far as I know:

This is the original list of 25 scientific musos on Twitter, I won’t be updating it here. I will be adding to the actual live list on Twitter, at least until I have 500 members and then I’ll stop (that’s the twitter list limit).

I found out about this musical scientific site after I started compiling my list – http://scientistmusicians.wordpress.com/
