Marie Curie: the first woman of science
Marie was born in in 1867 in Warsaw, Poland, to a family of teachers who believed in the
education of women. After years of working hard and saving money, she moved to Paris to continue her
studies. There she met Pierre Curie, who became both her husband and colleague in the field of
radioactivity. The couple were later awarded the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics. Marie was widowed in
1906, but she continued the couple's work and went on to become the first person ever to be awarded two
Nobel Prizes.
Marie Curie was a genius. As a woman, she was a pioneer in a world which had previously been open
only to men. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win twice,
the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two different sciences, and was part of the Curie family legacy of
five Nobel Prizes. (The Curies' daughter, Irene, was also awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry alongside
her husband, Frederic Joliot.) She was also the first woman to become a professor at the University of
Paris.
Her achievements included the development of the theory of radioactivity (a term that she invented),
techniques for isolating radioactive isotopes, and the discovery of two elements, radium and polonium,
the latter named after her native country. She led the world’s first studies into the treatment of neoplasms,
using radioactive isotopes, and she formed a revolutionary hypothesis about the emission of rays by
uranium compounds. She founded the Curie Institutes in Paris and in Warsaw, which remain major
centres of medical research today.
Marie Curie died in 1934, aged 66, in France, of aplastic anemia, an illness caused by exposure to
radiation in the course of her scientific research and in the course of her radiological work at field
hospitals during World War I.
____ 41. Marie Curie studied in Paris.
____ 42. Pierre Curie died in 1907.
____ 43. Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize.
____ 44. Marie Curie’s daughter won the Nobel Prize.
