Hermann Conring (November 9, 1606 – December 12, 1681) was a German intellectual. He made significant contributions to the study of medicine, politics and law.
Descended from Lutheran clergy on both sides of his family, second-youngest of ten children, Conring showed early promise as a student. During his life as a professor in North Germany, Conring addressed himself first to medicine, producing significant studies on blood circulation, and later in his career addressed himself to politics.
