Hermann Paul Nitsche (November 25, 1876 in Colditz – March 25, 1948 in Dresden) was a German psychiatrist known for his expert endorsement of the Third Reich's euthanasia authorization and who later headed the T-4 Euthanasia Program.Nitsche received his medical license in 1901 and a professorship in 1925. Nitsche did not join the Nazi Party until May 1933, and he was driven not so much by Nazi racial ideology as by his own support of racial science and his vision of "progressive medicine".
