Hertha Meyer (3 May 1902 – 30 August 1990) was a Brazilian biologist and director of the Carlos Chagas Filho Biophysics Institute at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. Born in Germany, she was educated in a technical course in infectious diseases in Berlin. Following Jewish persecution under the Nazi regime, she moved to Italy to work under Giuseppe Levi at the University of Turin. As antisemitism rose in Italy, she emigrated to Brazil where she joined the faculty of Oswaldo Cruz Institute. She transferred to the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro to head the Carlos Chagas Filho Biophysics Institute, where a separate laboratory called Laboratório de Ultraestrutura Celular Hertha Meyer (Hertha Meyer Laboratory of Cellular Ultrastructure) was established in her name.
