Sir Ronald Fisher Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher FRS 17 February 29 July ) was a British eugenicist evolutionary biologist geneticist and statistician . He has been described by Richard Dawkins as "The greatest of Darwinâs successors", and the historian of statistics Anders Hald said "Fisher was a genius who almost single-handedly created the foundations for modern statistical science." edit Fisher was born in East Finchley in London and obtained a BA degree in mathematics , not astronomy as is often said, from the University of Cambridge in . In he was involved in the formation of the Cambridge University Eugenics Society. His studies of errors in astronomical calculations, together with his interests in genetics and natural selection , led to involvement in statistics.

Extractions: Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher was born February 17, 1890 in East Finchley, London to a fine arts auctioneer named George Fisher and Katie (Heath). None of his ancestors showed any strong mathematical inclinations, with the small exception of his uncle who graduated as a Wrangler from Cambridge. As a child, Fishers eyesight was already poor and this inhibited his private reading. In 1904, when he was 14 years old, his mother died, and that same year he received a scholarship in mathematics to Harrow. Because of his eyesight, he received tutoring in math under G. H. P. Mayo. In 1909 he won a scholarship in mathematics to Cambridge University and graduated in 1912 with a B. A. in Astronomy. He was awarded a studentship for one year and studied theory of errors under F. J. M. Stratton and also more astronomy and quantum physics under J. Jeans. In April of 1912, Fisher published his first paper introducing what would later become known as the method of maximum likelihood. The remainder of that summer, Fisher took up correspondence with W. S. Gosset ("Student") in relation to a part of his equation for standard deviation. During this correspondence, he ended up making the distinction between sample and population means. In the theoretical or pure statistics, large samples, sometimes even infinite (using ideal situations), were taken from the population. Almost the entire population itself was taken as the ideal sample, making little error, but making applying those techniques impractical. R. A. Fisher was interested in the practical applications of statistics, dealing with small quantities in a sample, not infinitely large ones.

Extractions: Fisher was an inventive statistician who put the theory of estimation on a sound footing. He worked at the Rothamsted Experimental Station from 1919 to 1933, when he became Professor of Genetics at UCL. Ten years later, he returned to Cambridge. His idea of the information matrix has developed into a deep theory of Riemannian geometry in classical as well as quantum information theory. Go to my HOME PAGE for more links.

Fisher was a student at a time when there was still controversy about Darwin's theories and when Mendel's work on genes had just been rediscovered. Fisher made important discoveries in statistics (eg. maximum likelihood), genetics, selection and (genetic) dominance. It could be said that he invented a large part of modern statistics. Fisher was brilliant, an idealist and in some ways naive. He held strong views; many of them are politically incorrect by present standards but that would not have bothered him at all.

He was a pioneer in the mathematical theory of genetics. Ronald Fisher was born in London on Feb. 17, 1890, and was educated at Cambridge University, where he specialized in mathematics and physics. In 1919 he was appointed to the new post of research statistician at the Rothamsted Experimental Station in Hertfordshire. His primary task there was the analysis and reinterpretation of a 66-year backlog of records on continuous agricultural experiments and associated meteorological data. In discharging this duty he revolutionized existing statistical techniques, and he expressed the new outlook in Statistical Methods for Research Workers
