Looking at the overall ranking, the only person who I could find with possible Asian ancestry was Lenin. Before looking at the data, one could hypothesize they would be overrepresented in math heavy fields, and underrepresented in verbal tilted fields.

But from what I could see, Asians found their highest rankings in Activism (#3), Anthropology (#4), Art (#2), and Author (#4). I couldn't find any for Biology, Chemistry, Economy, or Engineering. Nakamura made the list for chess, but not Ding Liren. What are the chances?
