Hans Delmotte (born 15 December 1917 in Liège , died 1945) was a Belgian SS doctor at the Auschwitz concentration camp in the branch of the Hygiene Institute of the Waffen SS. By the late fall of 1944 he finally took part in selections. For Delmotte's dissertation, he reserved a Jewish prisoner doctor and professor to assist him. For this research, Delmotte took part in typhus experiments on prisoners at Auschwitz. Delmotte's dissertation:. Contributions to pathological physiology of gastric secretion in typhoid fever was already completed in 1944.

After the evacuation of Auschwitz in January 1945, Delmotte was momentarily still working in Dachauc. He was arrested by members of the U.S. Army. During the transfer to a prison, Delmotte managed to shoot himself.[1]
