Wilhelm Weinberg (25 December 1862 – 27 November 1937) was a German obstetrician-gynecologist, practicing in Stuttgart, who in a 1908 paper, published in German in Jahresheft des Vereins für vaterländische Naturkunde in Württemberg (The Annals of the Society of National Natural History in Württemberg), expressed the concept that would later come to be known as the Hardy–Weinberg principle.
Weinberg is also credited as the first to explain the effect of ascertainment bias on observations in genetics.
