In 1884 he became professor of mathematics at University College,London. Pearson was particularly brilliant at applying statistical methods to biological problems. In 1900 he developed the chi square test,a criterion to measure the extent to which a theoretical probability distribution fits a set of data. In the background is a bust of British biologist Raphael Weldon (1860-1906). Pearson,Weldon and Galton jointly founded the statistics journal 'Biometrika' in 1901.
