Erasmus Darwin Barlow FRCPsych FZS (15 April 1915 – 2 August 2005) was a British psychiatrist, physiologist and businessman.

Born in London in 1915, he was the second son of Sir Alan Barlow, son of Sir Thomas Barlow, royal physician. His mother was Lady Nora Barlow, daughter of Sir Horace Darwin.

His elder brother was Commodore Sir Thomas Erasmus Barlow, a younger brother is Horace Barlow.

He was educated at Marlborough College, and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he studied medicine. He also studied at University College London. He married Brigit Ursula Hope Black (known as Biddy), daughter of the author Ladbroke Black in 1938. They had three children:

Jeremy Barlow (b.1939), flautist and Director of the Broadside Band, married Jane Marian Hollowood
Camilla Barlow (b.1942), married Martin Christopher Mitcheson OBE, doctor, and later Anthony Whitworth-Jones, Director of Garsington Opera
Phyllida Barlow (b.1944), sculptor and Professor of Fine Art at the Slade School of Fine Art in London, who married Fabian Peake, son of the artist Mervyn Peake.
