Hermann Staudinger (March 23, 1881 in Worms- Sept. 8, 1965 in Freiburg) was a German chemist. He won a Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1953, for his discoveries in the field of macromolecular chemistry.
From 1926 onwards, he was a Lecturer at the University of Freiburg. In 1934, philosopher Martin Heidegger learnt that Staudinger had applied for Swiss citizenship during World War I, he denounced him to the regional minister of Education as a hidden pacifist. Staudinger was invited to resign, but he refused and the issue was dismissed because of fears of international outrage.Template:Scientist-stub
