Summary

Marie Salomea Skodowska Curie was a Polish-born, naturalized-French researcher and chemist who originated radioactivity research. She was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, the first and only woman to win it two times, and the only individual to win the Nobel Prize in two different clinical classifications.

Her first Nobel Prize was co-won by her spouse, Pierre Curie, making them the first married set to win the reward and developing the Curie family tradition of five Nobel Prizes. She was the first woman to be selected as a teacher at the University of Paris in 1906.

Let’s take a look at what else she accomplished in her life.
