摘要: 丹尼尔·伯努利（Daniel Bernoulli，1700-1782）是18世纪著名的物理学家和数学家。他提出了令人信服的统计学论据，用以主张接种天花疫苗。他在概率论和微积分领域做出了重要贡献，是提出统计学假设检验的第一人。同时，他将概率论应用于男女出生比例等实际问题。在流行病学与卫生统计学的发展历程中，他如一位拾砖者，搬来不可或缺的基石。

Abstract: Daniel Bernoulli (1700-1782) was a famous physicist and mathematician in the 18th century. He made a compelling statistical case for smallpox vaccination. He made important contributions to the knowledge of probability theory and calculus, and was the first person to put forward the question of statistical hypothesis test. At the same time, he applied probability theory to practical problems such as the ratio of male to female births. In the development of epidemiology and biostatistics, he seems to be a brick picker, moving indispensable cornerstone.
