This is the story of a remarkable woman born in Poland in the late 19th century. She moved to Paris to study physics and mathematics at the Sorbonne, where she discovered radiation, a type of energy previously unknown to science. After years of research, she found that a compound made from radium could be used to destroy cancerous tumors, revolutionizing medicine.
She also made groundbreaking discoveries in the field of atomic structure, proving that atoms were made up of smaller particles, which she called electrons. Her work laid the foundation for modern physics.
Despite facing discrimination and resistance, she continued to push the boundaries of what was known and explore new frontiers in science. Her dedication and hard work paid off in the end, as she was awarded numerous honors and accolades, including two Nobel Prizes in physics and chemistry.
Her name was revealed at the end of the story to be Marie Curie, one of the greatest scientists of all time. Her legacy continues to inspire generations of women and men to pursue their passions and make a difference in the world through the pursuit of knowledge.
