Marie Curie met her future husband Pierre Curie at the university. He considered Marie to be a
genius and instantly wanted to work with her. They got married and spent most of their time
together in their laboratory studying radioactive materials. Their research led to the discovery of
radium, for which they were honored with the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903.

Curie was born in Warsaw, Poland. Her father was a maths and physics teacher and was a big
influence on Marie’s early education. From an early age, Marie was an exceptional student with

to Paris to study and conduct her research.

Pierre was killed in 1906 and Marie was devastated and extremely lonely. She threw herself even
deeper into her work and won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1911. She spent the 1920s
raising funds for more research into radium. In 1934, she died from a condition caused by
decades of exposure to radiation. No one knew how deadly radium was until years later.
