I mentioned Rosalind Franklin. She's dead though, and I was mentioning her as deserving mention along with James Watson, my living mention.

To easy seeing the comments... :P
Anyway, here's some awesome people. Not all purely "scientists" per say though.
- Sir Ken Robinson
- Robert Winston
- Joy S. Reidenberg
- Michio Kaku
There's more but I forgot their names... also, a lot where already named by others.
Oh, also i'd like to add my first cousin! She is a neuro-scientist, doing work on Alzheimer among other things, she is still early in her career. But she is one of my idols ^_^

Michio Kaku might be famous, but he's a damn joke. Basically everything he does is make up stuff.
Niels Bohr is dead :< Originally Posted by Rukentuts

I think your requirement of 'famous' is flawed. I know many 'famous' scientists that are not in the media spotlight, but have done so much more for their respective fields of science that the primarily listed ones here. The only exception to that would be Prof. Stephen Hawking.
My 'famous' living scientists would be
Prof Stephen Hawking
Prof An Pang Tsai (person who discovered the only thermally stable binary quasicrystal, which in turn has led perfect structural solutions being calculated for this form of solid matter)
Sir Andre Geim (person who discovered a way to separate sheets of Graphene to such a degree that it is now possible to easily isolate a sheet of graphene one atom thick)RETH
