Rosanne Yente Hertzberger (born 9 September 1984) is a Dutch microbiologist and politician from the New Social Contract. She was elected to the Dutch Parliament in the 2023 Dutch general election, and her focus has been on higher education, medical ethics, and the nitrogen crisis in the Netherlands.[1] [2]

Hertzberger is on the committee carrying out the parliamentary inquiry into the Dutch response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which commenced in February 2024.[3] After New Social Contract formed a coalition with the right-wing populist Party for Freedom (PVV) and two other parties, Hertzberger declared that she felt great discomfort about her party's cooperation with the PVV.[4]
