Hugh Christopher Longuet-Higgins (11 April 1923 – 27 March 2004) was a British chemist and cognitive scientist. He was the Professor of Theoretical Chemistry at the University of Cambridge for 13 years until 1967 when he moved to the University of Edinburgh to work in the developing field of cognitive science. He made many significant contributions to our understanding of molecular science. He was also a gifted amateur musician, both as performer and composer, and was keen to advance the scientific understanding of this art.[7] He was the founding editor of the journal Molecular Physics.[8]
