Мария Склодовская, известная как Мария Кюри, родилась в Варшаве, Польша, в 1867 году. Она была младшей из пяти детей учителей. После смерти матери в 1877 году, Мания (как ее звали) начала работать, став репетитором для семьи. Она отправляла деньги отцу и сестре Броне, которая училась на медицинском факультете в Париже. После замужества сестры, Мария переехала с ней и начала учиться в Сорбонне, где изменила имя на Мария.
Она изучала физику и математику, получив магистерские степени. В процессе исследований магнитизма она встретила Пьера Кюри, с которым вскоре поженилась. Вместе они начали исследования по изоляции радиоактивных элементов, что привело к открытию радия, за которое они получили Нобелевскую премию по физике в 1903 году. После трагической смерти мужа в 1906 году, Мария заняла его место в Сорбонне.
