Marie Curie won two Nobel prizes. She coined the phrase ‘radioactivity’ and added radium and polonium to the periodic table. She shared one of her Nobel prizes and much of her work with her husband, Pierre, but there has never been a question about the quality and genius of Marie’s work alone.
After Pierre Curie died in 1906, Marie continued to experiment, to learn and to discover.
There are many kinds of pioneers. Some people go off to foreign lands; some people explore ideas that alter the way we understand the world. This is the kind of pioneer Marie Curie was.
