Lambert Adolphe Jacques Quetelet; February 22, 1796 - February 17, 1874) was a Belgian astronomer, mathematician, statistician and sociologist who founded and directed the Brussels Observatory and was influential in introducing statistical methods to the social sciences. His name is sometimes spelled with an accent as Quételet.
He also founded the science of anthropometry and developed the body mass index (BMI) scale, originally called the Quetelet index. His work on measuring human characteristics to determine the ideal average person played a key role in the beginnings of eugenics.
