Portrait of Polish physicist and chemist, Marie Salomea Skłodowska Curie (1867-1934) and her husband, French physicist Pierre Curie (1859-1906), circa 1895. Marie was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win the Nobel Prize twice, and the only person to win the Nobel Prize in two scientific fields.

Marie Curie’s relentless resolve and insatiable curiosity made her an icon in the world of modern science. Indefatigable despite a career of physically demanding and ultimately fatal work, she discovered polonium and radium, championed the use of radiation in medicine and fundamentally changed our understanding of radioactivity.
