Richard Peto
Richard Peto is a renowned British statistician and professor of medical statistics at the University of Oxford, best known for his pioneering work in cancer epidemiology. In the 1970s, he identified the 'Peto's Paradox', which observed that larger animals did not have a proportionately higher incidence of cancer compared to smaller ones, a finding that challenged existing assumptions about cancer biology. His research has significantly influenced the understanding of cancer risk and prevention.
