Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Or, if you're feeling punny, a Test Tube Babe. More a staple of movies (especially science fiction), but also appears regularly on TV. When a male protagonist needs to consult with or bring in an expert on some obscure and/or technical subject (poisonous orchids, particle theory, rare diseases, ancient languages, prehistoric sharks, whatever), said expert will turn out to be female, drop dead gorgeous, and, at twentysomething, conspicuously too young to have possibly earned the relevant academic degrees or otherwise accrued such expertise (often this is handwaved by mentioning at some point that she was a Teen Genius). Not all of these are required, but the general gist is good enough. The reason why this trope is popular is because men want a woman who can tell them about Lagrange points and do a lap-dance. Preferably both at the same time. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })If the word "model" appears anywhere on The Other Wiki's entry on their actor, you're definitely dealing with one. A Hot Scientist is frequently a Hot Librarian as well, and often ends up as a Girl of the Week or Temporary Love Interest. She may also be an Action Girl in a Badass Longcoat. Female protagonists, on the other hand, often get saddled with a Horny Scientist. This trope seems to be increasingly less Always Female, however. In Japanese media, especially the genres aimed at a female audience, expect to see pretty boys with PhDs as well. Please note that this applies to a character, not simply any hot actor playing a scientist, for the same reason Real Life examples are not listed here. Most actors are "hot" in the first place, so it usually goes unsaid. You can have an attractive scientist without their hotness being a plot element in the work - that would not fall under "Hot Scientist".

Wild ARMs 1 has Emma Hetfield. Although fashionable since the original game's artbooks, she got a serious upgrade for Alter Code F; the clothes got tighter and briefer, and the game camera decided to show her off to best advantage. She subverts the Improbable Age part, being canonically 39 years old, as well as living in a world where academics and engineering are passed down by apprenticeship. | |

Played with on Angel - Fred Burkle is the primary love interest for both Gunn and Wesley (and Willow gets a bit of a crush too), and was a physics student. She's presented as more cute than sexy, although her wardrobe does receive more attention as episodes go on. Lilah parodies this when she dresses up as Fred to mess with Wesley - her outfit is more fetish-like. | |

Forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan in Bones seems improbably young to be both an internationally known expert and a best-selling author of multiple novels. Bonus: She is also an expert in Spock Speak. In the original novels, Temperence "Tempe" Brennan is somewhat older and only busts out the Spock Speak when she actually needs it. Still hot, though. Judging from the author's photo on the dust jacket, this may be Truth in Television. Lampshaded once: |

The Whateley Universe has plenty, due to the Exemplar mutant power. In the Whateley Academy workshop there's Delta Spike and Bugs, both of whom are geniuses who happen to be among the hottest girls in a school full of superheroines. Jobe becomes one after he accidentally used his Drow serum on himself... er, herself. Too bad it didn't fix her personality. Belphoebe, on the other hand, gets lots of Character Development, so she no longer so obnoxious as her mental-template donor, Belphegor. |

MAD had a parody of the '60s I Spy show where the agents went to rescue a bikini-girl nuclear physicist from the Red Chinese. When they're informed by the bad guys that the girl they were after wasn't the real physicist, they reply that they knew it all along, because she wasn't sexy enough to be a nuclear physicist on a tv show. | |

Eek! The Cat parodied it in its Sci-Fi parody, with Elmo having to choose between the plan of an Einstein-looking super-genius, or the plan of the Bambi twins, who had gotten a B+ in physics. Which turned out to be the best course, as the Bambi Twins actually turned out to be incredibly intelligent and came up with a competent plan to save the day. |

In Episode 3.12 of The X-Files, War of the Coprophages, Mulder meets the charming scientist Dr. Bambi Berenbaum, whom he finds so attractive that he even ignores calls from Scully while in conversation with her. In the end, Dr. Bambi is seen flirting with the elderly, wheelchair-using Dr. Ivanov, both apparently enjoying the other's intellect in an apparent case of Pair the Smart Ones. | |

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has plenty, given the number of scientists needed to explain the various bizarre phenomena. Nuclear physicists Bruce Banner and Betty Ross, astrophysicist Jane Foster, bio-geneticist Helen Cho and Drs. Fitz and Simmons are all portrayed as attractive. Tony Stark himself is a brilliant engineer and billionaire playboy. | |

On Quantum Leap, the most we hear of Project QL staffer Tina is Al talking about his latest sexual escapade with her. Indeed, when we first see her on screen, she looks and sounds like a typical bimbo. But she's no secretary; she's a Pulse Communications Specialist (whatever that is), and she definitely wouldn't be working there if she was a dummy. And let's not forget Dr. Sam Beckett himself. . . | |

Samantha Carter of Stargate SG-1 in "Moebius, Part 2". Jack O'Neill (well, an alternate Jack, anyway) commented that he was definitely not used to such sciencey talk coming out of someone so hot. And she was in battle dress at the time! The "real" Carter didn't qualify nearly as often, since she was also a military officer and therefore spent a lot of time bloody and bruised, but when she did? Yowza! | |

Jadzia Dax, though her talents seem to run towards the practical sciences, is nonetheless science-division teal (rather than engineering yellow) in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. She fully embodies the trope, being both physically attractive and (when she wants to be) sexually adventurous, that last being a gift from her (male) predecessor Curzon, who actually went Out with a Bang. While she's not an accredited scientist, her big brain allows Seven Of Nine to function as Voyager's resident theoretical and applied physicist. Her big...tracts of land, on the other hand, allow her to function as eye candy. |

Felicity from Arrow also makes an appearance, even showing up to a trivia tournament in a Little Black Dress. She even shares a kiss with Barry, although they're both pining for someone else. An episode of the Legends of Tomorrow spin-off gives us Jewel Staite as a cybernetics specialist named Rachel Turner. Ray finds out that she's his brother's descendant. |

She is called into the lab one night dressed as Marilyn Monroe, straight from a costume party... now that is even hotter. It should also be pointed out that there is a dress code and she is expected to follow it. The director actually enforced it in one episode, then Abby complained to Gibbs about said enforcement, the dress code issue was never enforced on her again. Not from within, anyway. |

Several valuable CONTROL-affiliated scientists on Get Smart (the first we see is the chemist Dr. Steele). This is explained by their cover - they're employed full time as showgirls, and do their real work in a secret lab accessible through the backstage area of a theatre - often while rehearsals or shows are going on that they're in. (The sheer Refuge in Audacity does work: that may be the least-broken cover CONTROL employees ever have in the series.) | |

The Cave downplays it with Catherine - who does serve as something of a love interest for Tyler - and she's the science person in contrast to the trained divers. In this case her being young and pretty is justified by her being the assistant to the main scientist Dr Nikolai. And she's played by Lena Headey, who was the slightly more reasonable age of 32. | |

Amanda from El Goonish Shive, is lusted after by her employer, Dr. Germahn, and her lesbian roommate and coworker, Lisa, but continues to work on getting recognition as a scientist to prove she is not at Germahn Labs just for her looks. She even formulates ''her own'' shrinking formula as part of that effort. | |

Welcome to Night Vale has Carlos, an Omnidisciplinary Scientist who arrives to investigate the bizarre supernatural happenings in the town. He has been described as dark, with beautiful hair (so beautiful, the town's barber, Telly, has a Despair Event Horizon after cutting it), a strong jaw, teeth "like a military cemetery", and a voice "like caramel". Night Vale's local radio host, Cecil, falls in love with Carlos instantly. And as of episodes 25 and 27, Carlos reciprocates. | |

Doctor Who has used this trope multiple times. Liz Shaw wears knee-length boots and very short skirts, and also has doctorates in biochemistry and astronomy. The Doctor's companion Romana, despite technically being a psychologist and/or historian, fits this trope reasonably well, and her attractiveness is confirmed by K9 and later by the Doctor himself. Also, Peri is a botany student and is well known for her cleavage. River Song is no slouch in the sciences (she understands the TARDIS' physics) or the looks (she could fell an ox with that cleavage) departments. She has also earned her Ph.D. in Archaeology at the Luna University. |

CSI also has a periodic Hot Scientist, a forensic anthropologist that Grissom tries to call in to consult at every available opportunity. Lampshaded in the episode Two and a Half Deaths. A TV producer who worked with a murdered sitcom actress visits the lab. After seeing several of the team he muses that there might be a market for a show about attractive people working in a high-tech crime lab. |

Kill la Kill's, Aikuro Mikisugi is a scientist who once assisted Ryuko's father in researching Life Fibers. Aikuro's also a ridiculously over-the-top fanservice machine who can't keep his damn clothes on. The end result is exposition delivered by an eccentric Bishōnen wearing little more than an open lab coat and conveniently-placed lens flare. | |

Supermassive Black Hole A* had Selenis, an attractive Femme Fatale bounty hunter, being a scientist centuries ago before the destruction of the facility and later rebuild herself a cloning facility. Though her age seems to be catching up with her by this time when she became middle-aged during the failed experiment of her first clone. While her "hot" nature is still preserved from her clones' activation after each death, she had been working as a mercenary to fund her cloning operation and find a perfect cloning system. | |

Josie Beller, a.k.a. Circuit-Breaker, from Marvel Comics' Generation One Transformers comic, was hired by G.B. Blackrock right out of high school to design what was then the world's most advanced automated deep-sea oil rig. When that was destroyed, and she herself paralyzed, by a Decepticon attack, she designed and built for herself a suit of Stripperiffic cybernetic Power Armor so that she could fight the Transformers. She was also the primary, and almost the only source of Fanservice in the whole comic. | |

Sabrina the Teenage Witch gives us Sabrina's aunt Zelda. Although her sister Hilda has the more active love life, Zelda attracts plenty of admirers - many of whom are fellow scientists. She also provides more Fanservice by the way of flattering evening dresses. In this case the endless knowledge of science is justified by her being over six hundred years old. | |
