Here's a list of some notable Christian scientists.  I'm sure you'll recognize many of the names as they made significant contributions to the advancement of science.  Reading the extremely abbreviated descriptions, it seems that many of these scientists' research was inspired by their faith.
Most do not list specific denominations.

While there were several that were identified as evangelicals, there was only one who was specifically identified as Baptist - Arthur Compton, who won the Nobel prize in physics.  In fact, in the Wikipedia article, under the heading 1901-2000 A.D. (20th Century), it gives statistics showing that a sizeable majority of Nobel prizewinners identified themselves as Christians (percentages by prize subject are given).
