Bernie Sanders's 2020 presidential campaign was the Vermont senator's second run for the Democratic nomination, running on Medicare for All and small-dollar fundraising before he suspended it in April 2020.
Bernie Taupin
Bernie Taupin (born 1950) is the English lyricist and visual artist who has written the words for Elton John's songs since 1967, including Your Song, Rocket Man, and Candle in the Wind '97; the duo's method, honors, and solo careers distinguish him from any other songwriter of the same name.
Bernie Tiede
Bernie Tiede, born Bernhardt Tiede II, is a former East Texas mortician convicted of murdering wealthy widow Marjorie Nugent in Carthage, Texas, in 1996 and hiding her body in a freezer.
Bernie Williams
Bernie Williams (Bernabe Williams), born 1968 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, is a former Yankees center fielder (1991-2006), four-time World Series champion, 1998 AL batting champion, five-time All-Star, and later a Manhattan School of Music-trained jazz guitarist.
Bernie Willis
Bernie Willis, also known as Bernard Willis, is an American politician serving as a Republican member of the Ohio House of Representatives from Ohio's 74th district.
Bernie Worrell
Bernie Worrell (George Bernard Worrell Jr., 1944–2016), the "Wizard of Woo," was a founding keyboardist and musical director of Parliament-Funkadelic, later worked with Talking Heads, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997.
Bernie Wrightson
Bernie Wrightson (1948–2017), American horror comic artist who co-created DC's Swamp Thing with Len Wein in House of Secrets #92 (1971), drew its first ten issues, and illustrated Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1983).

Berniece Baker Miracle
Berniece Baker Miracle, born Berniece Inez Gladys Baker, was an American author and older half-sister of Marilyn Monroe who co-wrote the 1994 memoir My Sister Marilyn.
Bernini
Bernini is a family of open-weight video generation and editing models released by ByteDance in 2026, combining a multimodal planner with a diffusion transformer and including the renderer-only Bernini-R variant.
Bernoulli distribution
The Bernoulli distribution is the discrete probability distribution of a single trial with exactly two outcomes, success with probability p and failure with probability 1 − p.
Bernoulli gripper
A Bernoulli gripper is a pneumatic end-effector that grips without contact: fast radial airflow creates negative pressure that lifts delicate items like wafers, glass, and food.
Bernoulli model
The Bernoulli model is a statistical model for binary data where each observation is a success or failure with fixed success probability, underlying binomial and logistic models.
Bernoulli number
The Bernoulli numbers are a sequence of rational numbers introduced by Jacob Bernoulli to sum powers of integers, appearing in the Euler–Maclaurin formula and the Riemann zeta function.
Bernoulli numbers
The Bernoulli numbers are a sequence of rational numbers named for Jacob Bernoulli, who introduced them in his 1713 Ars Conjectandi to compute sums of powers of integers.
Bernoulli process
A Bernoulli process is a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials, each with only two outcomes and the same success probability p, named after Jacob Bernoulli, who proved the weak law of large numbers.
Bernoulli shift
The Bernoulli shift is the shift map on infinite sequences of independent random variables, the canonical deterministic system reproducing independent random sampling, with entropy equal to Shannon entropy.
Bernoulli trial
A Bernoulli trial, also known as a binomial trial, is a random experiment with exactly two outcomes, success and failure, where the success probability p stays fixed.
Bernoulli's principle
Bernoulli's principle, also called Bernoulli's law or the Bernoulli effect, states that in steady, frictionless fluid flow, faster flow means lower pressure; Daniel Bernoulli published it in 1738.
Bernstein inequalities
The Bernstein inequalities are exponential concentration bounds for sums of independent random variables using both variance and a bound on each summand, introduced by Sergei Bernstein in 1924.
Bernstein polynomial
A Bernstein polynomial is a polynomial expressed as a combination of Bernstein basis functions on the unit interval, numerically stable and standard in computer-aided geometric design as the Bézier form.
Bernstein polynomials
Bernstein polynomials are polynomials formed from nonnegative Bernstein basis functions on [0, 1], introduced by Sergei Bernstein in 1912 and converging uniformly to any continuous function.
Bernstein Prize
The Bernstein Prize (פרס ברנשטיין) is an Israeli literary prize for writers at the start of their careers, awarded since 1978 from Mordechai Bernstein's bequest and administered by the Book Publishers Association of Israel.
Bernstein wave
A Bernstein wave is an electrostatic plasma wave propagating nearly perpendicular to a magnetic field, first described by Ira B. Bernstein in 1958 and used to heat over-dense plasmas in spherical tokamaks.
Bernstein–von Mises theorem
The Bernstein–von Mises theorem states that in large samples the Bayesian posterior is approximately normal, centered at the maximum likelihood estimator, regardless of the prior used.
Bernstein's theorem on monotone functions
Bernstein's theorem on monotone functions, also called the Hausdorff-Bernstein-Widder theorem, is a result of analysis stating that a function is completely monotone if and only if it is the Laplace transform of a non-negative measure.
Bernt Eric Uhlin
Bernt Eric Uhlin is a Swedish molecular microbiologist and professor of medical microbiology at Umeå University, who directed MIMS from 2007 to 2018 and studies bacterial virulence and biofilms.
Bernt Evensen
Bernt Sverre Evensen (Bæla), 1905–1979, Norwegian speed skater and track cyclist; first Norwegian Olympic speed skating champion, 1928 500 m gold tied with Clas Thunberg, World allround champion 1927 and 1934.
Bernt Johansson
Bernt Johansson (born 1953, Göteborg), Swedish road cyclist; Olympic road race gold at Montreal 1976, 1974 world team time trial champion, third at the 1979 Giro d'Italia as a professional in Italy.
