Carl Daniel von Haartman (5 May 1792 – 15 August 1877) was a Finnish physician (gynaecologist).[1][2]
Von Haartman was born in Turku, Finland, then part of the Kingdom of Sweden. His father, Gabriel Erik von Haartman (1757–1815), was a physician and statesman. Von Haartman's mother, Fredrika Lovisa von Mell,[3] was the daughter of Lars Henrik von Mell.
Von Haartman served as general director for the Finnish Medicinal Government Agency 1833–1855.[3]
In the 1840s, he published the racially biased Försök att bestämma den genuina racen af de i Finland boende folk, som tala finska ("Acta Societatis scientiarum Fennicæ", in 1845).[4]
