Otto von Verscheur was professor at the Kaiser William Institute of Anthropology, Human Genetics, and Eugenics, who was part of the development of Nazi race and biological ideology.
He was one of Josef Mengele's teachers and directed his experiments and Auschwitz Concentration Camp.[1] According to Prof. Hans Grebe, who started an assistantship for von Verscheur in 1938, Mengele was "our chief's favorite student." Grebe denied his professor was antisemitic. [2]
