Answer 1

Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher, FRS (1890 - 1962) was an English statistician, evolutionary biologist, and geneticist. Richard Dawkins described him as "The greatest of Darwin's successors", and the historian of statistics Anders Hald said "Fisher was a genius who almost single-handedly created the foundations for modern statistical science".His contributions to experimental design, analysis of variance, and likelihood based methods have led some to call him "The Father of Statistics".

Sir David R. Cox, born in 1924, is a British statistician who has made pioneering and important contributions to numerous areas of statistics and applied probability. Perhaps the best known of his many developments is the proportional hazards model, which is widely used in the analysis of survival data. He is now an Honorary Fellow of Nuffield College and a member of the Department of Statistics at the University of Oxford.

Florence Nightingale David (1909 - 1993), a great statistician and a fighter for increasing women's roles in the sciences, began her career as a research assistant in Karl Pearson's laboratory. During World War II, she became an experimental officer and senior statistician for the Research and Experiments Department, and was scientific advisor on mines for the military. David felt that the war gave women more opportunities and that conditions for them are now better because of it. After serving as a lecturer and professor at University College for many years, in 1970 she was offered the chair of statistics at the University of California at Riverside.
