Otmar Verschuer
Otmar Verschuer was a German geneticist who played a pivotal role in the development of racial hygiene theories during the Nazi regime. He was known for conducting unethical experiments on twins and other individuals at Auschwitz, where he collaborated closely with Josef Mengele. Verschuer's work sought to establish pseudo-scientific bases for racial superiority, and he was instrumental in promoting the use of human subjects for genetic and anthropological research under the guise of scientific inquiry.
