Brainiacs (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eggheads

'brainiacs' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for eggheads that I've seen before include "Intellectuals with ovoid craniums" , "Slang intellectuals with lofty domes" , "academic talents" , "Intellectuals (colloq.)" , "Quiz programme" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the LA Times.
