Johann Carl Gehler (17 May 1732, Görlitz – 6 May 1796, Leipzig) was a German physician, mineralogist and anatomist. From 1751 to 1758, he studied medicine at the University of Leipzig, where he was a pupil of physician and botanist Christian Gottlieb Ludwig. While a student at Leipzig, he furthered his interest in natural sciences, publishing the mineralogical treatise, ''De characteribus fossilium externis'' (1757), as a result. Following graduation, he continued his education by studying mineralogy in Freiberg and obstetrics in Strasbourg as a student of Johann Jakob Fried (1689–1769).〔(ADB: Gehler, Johann Karl ) In: Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie (ADB).
