she became a very famous nurse and stuff in fact a very important nurse! :-D
If Marie Curie was still alive today she would be 144
Eve Curie Labouisse, 102 years of age and daughter of Nobel Laureate Marie Curie, died October 26, 2007.
discovering radium
yes of coures some people think that there gran gran gran granmother is marie curie
no i dont think so
Marie Curie contributed to our understanding of the phenomenon of radiation, and that remains scientifically important. All scientific progress has an enduring impact.
Marie Curie (nee Sklodowska) had a daughter, Irene Curie, who married Frederic Jolie. This couple took the name Joliet-Curie, and together they won a Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Their daughter, Helene Joliet, also became a physicist; and Helene's son, Yves Langevin, is an astro-physicist. The latter two are still alive as of 2013 December, and are quite willing to talk about their famous ancestors.
Polonium was discovered by Marie Curie and Pierre Curie in 1898.Radium was discovered by Marie Curie, Pierre Curie and G. Bemont also in 1898. Studying residues of uranium ores Marie Curie and Pierre Curie found that these residues are more radioactive than uranium; they attributed this radioactivity to unknown elements. They isolated these elements and named these elements polonium and radium.
Marie Curie brought the X-ray into use when France found themselves at war. She found that the best thing that she could do to help was to provide X-ray machines for all of the wounded soldiers that were brought into the hospital. Marie Curie and many helpers eventually got 20 cars equipped with X-ray equipment and over 200 hospital rooms each equipped with X-ray machines. Marie Curie is still relevant today because as far as I know X-rays are still used.
Marie Curie discovered radium and polonium and made huge inroads in the research of radioactivity and it's benefits. As a note of interest, both her and her husband Pierre's journals are still radioactive.
they made flubery x rays
yes and she is still alive
