After being refused to experience higher education in Poland, Marie Sklodowska moved to France to study science. She met her husband, Pierre Curie in France, and became revolutionary scientists.

Marie Curie is known for discovering ‘radioactivity’, a term she coined after experimenting on a glow coming from uranium salts. Because of this, she became the first woman to win a Nobel Prize in Physics.

She continued to devote her time studying radioactivity until she discovered two elements, polonium and radium. During this process, she also learned that radiation can cure cancer. This got her another Nobel Prize in Chemistry, making her the first ever awardee of two Nobel Prizes!
