Paul Meier is an American statistician renowned for his contributions to survival analysis and biostatistics. He is best known for developing the Kaplan-Meier estimator, a statistical tool used to estimate the survival function from lifetime data, particularly in the context of clinical trials and medical research. The Kaplan-Meier method provides a way to visualize survival data, allowing researchers to understand the time until an event occurs, such as death or failure of a treatment.
