Marie Sklodowska Curie


               Marie Sklodowska Curie was a Polish and naturalized-French physicist and chemist who conducted pioneer research on radioactivity. She was born in Warsaw, Kingdom of Poland, then apart of Russian Empire. She was once denied admission to a university because she was a woman. She went on to become the first woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize, and today she remains the only person in history to be awarded two Nobel Prizes in two different fields of science. Unfortunately, she died on July 4, 1934.
