Charlotte Auerbach (May 14, 1899 – March 17, 1994) was a geneticist. Born in Germany, she fled to Scotland because of anti-Semitism. She became well-known after 1942 when she, with A. J. Clark and J. M. Robson, discovered that mustard gas could cause mutations in fruit flies. This, and her later work, founded the science of mutagenesis. In 1947, she published a book of fairy stories titled Adventures with Rosalind under the pen-name of Charlotte Austen. In 1977, she was awarded The Royal Society Darwin Medal.
