Marie Curie was born in 1867. She is one of the greatest scientists to
have ever lived. She was a pioneer in the field of radioactivity and
discovered the chemical elements radium and polonium. Curie is the
only person ever to win two Nobel Prizes in two different sciences.
Other achievements include being the first female professor at the
University of Paris.
Curie was born in Warsaw, Poland. Her father was a Maths and
Physics teacher and was a big influence on Mariey's early education.
From an early age Marie was an exceptional student with an amazing
memory. She often went without food and sleep to study. Her brilliant
mind led her to Paris to study and conduct her research. She met her
future husband Pierre Curie at the university. He considered Marie to
be a genius and instantly wanted to work with her. They got married
and spent most of their time together in their laboratory studying
radioactive materials. Their research led to the discovery of radium,
for which they were honoured with the Nobel Prize in Physics in
1903.
Pierre was killed in 1906 and Marie was devastated and extremely
lonely. She threw herself even deeper into her work and won the
Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1911. She spent the 1920s raising funds
for more research into radium. In 1934 she died from a condition
caused by decades of exposure to radiation. Before that no one knew
how deadly radium could be.
