I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'scientist' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'here's being strange' is the wordplay.
'strange' is an anagram indicator.
'heres'+'being'='heresbeing'
'heresbeing' is an anagram of 'HEISENBERG'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for heisenberg that I've seen before include "Nobel-winning physicist" , "'Uncertainty principle' mathematical physicist, d. 1976 -- begins here (anag)" , "Man of principle" , "Nobel prize-winner" , "Exact location and speed ever unknown, I suggested" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
