Two laureates have refused the prize. Jean-Paul Sartre refused the Literature prize in 1964 Le Duc Tho of North Vietnam refused the Peace Prize in 1973 when Henry Kissinger was also awarded one after bombing Hanoi.
Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin (1964 Chemistry)and Linda Buck (2004 Medicine - shared with Richard Axel)Marie and Pierre Curie shared the physics Nobel Prize with Becquerel for the discovery of radioacvtivity in 1903 and Marie received AA second Nobel Prize; this time in chemistry, for the isolation of pure Radium from pitchblende AND their daughter Irene Joliot-Curie shared the 1935 Nobel Prize for chemistry with her husband Frederic Joliot for producing the radioisotope of Nitrogen. ( what a mighty-fine family! )
Those are important parts of the science process, but not the only parts. There are such things as publication and peer review, and Nobel Prize awards, lucrative patents, and science popularization books and TV shows. There is a distinction between hypothesis and theory, so those are actually two separate phases of the scientific method, and then there is confirmation of a theory as well.
No, it is a pure substance; it is an element
Mother: Broniswala Boguski. She was a principle of Freta Street Boarding School for Girls. She died of tuberculosis in 1878. She was a catholic and her last words were "I love you." Father: Vladislav Sklodowska. A professor of mathematics and physics. Died of old age in Warsaw in 1902. Husband: Pierre Curie. They met though Marie's sister, Bronya. Marie was looking for a laboratory and Pierre said she could work. He won the Nobel Prize in 1903, along with Marie. They devoted their life to science and had two kids. Irene: Marie and Pierre's eldest daughter. She took after her mother and devoted her life to science. Later on she won a Nobel Prize, but neither of her parents were alive to see her get it. Eve: Youngest daughter. Mother: Broniswala Boguski. She was a principle of Freta Street Boarding School for Girls. She died of tuberculosis in 1878.

James Watson and Francis Crick are usually credited with the big breakthrough, though their work was built on that of others, including Maurice Wilkins and his team. This was recognised when Wilkins shared the Nobel prize with them. Many people credit Rosalind Franklin with an important part of the work too, but she died before the prize was awarded.
The French writer Jean-Paul Sartre refused the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1964, the only person ever to have done so. He explained that his personal belief was that writers should not accept awards which could prejudice their artistic freedom. Le Duc Tho also refused the Peace Prize in 1973 4 others were obliged to decline by their governments, including Boris Pasternak (Literature Prize 1958)
Mary Curie (Madam curie) won the Nobel prize in Physics.Also she got the Nobel Prize in CHEMISTRY.The only family got Nobel Prize in the world is Curie's family.Additional More information:The Nobel Prize has been awarded to women 36 times between 1901 and 2008. Only one woman, Marie Curie, has been honoured twice, with the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics and the 1911 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. This means that 35 women in total have been awarded the Nobel Prize.
As of 2009, four individuals have won a Nobel prize twice: Marie Curie (physics 1903, chemistry 1911), Linus Pauling (chemistry 1954, peace 1962), John Bardeen (physics 1956, physics 1972), Frederick Sanger (chemistry 1958, chemistry 1980). The only one of the four who was awarded both prizes as a solo recipient was Linus Pauling.
Only 6 people won Nobel prizes in 1906:The Nobel Prize in Physics - Joseph John ThomsonThe Nobel Prize in Chemistry - Henri MoissanThe Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine - Camillo Golgi, Santiago Ramón y CajalThe Nobel Prize in Literature - Giosuè CarducciThe Nobel Peace Prize - Theodore Roosevelt
George Bernard Shaw.
Marie Cure is the only woman to have won the Nobel Prize twice. First, in 1903, she was awarded the Nobel Prize, shared with Pierre Curie (her husband) and Henri Becquerel). Then, in 1911, Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize again. Her daughter (Irene Joliot-Curie) also won the Nobel Prize in 1935.
The name of the only person who has won two individual Nobel Prizes in different categories is American scientist and peace activist Linus Pauling. He won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1954 and the Nobel Peace Prize in 1962.
Melvin Schwartz and Albert Einstein are only a few of Nobel Prize winning scientists.
Only 7 people won Nobel prizes in 1908:The Nobel Prize in Physics - Gabriel LippmannThe Nobel Prize in Chemistry - Ernest RutherfordThe Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine - Ilya Ilyich Mechnikov, Paul EhrlichThe Nobel Prize in Literature - Rudolf Christoph EuckenThe Nobel Peace Prize - Klas Pontus Arnoldson, Fredrik Bajer
It was Linus Pauling. He won the Chemistry Prize in 1954 and the Nobel Peace Prize in 1962.
No, Albert Einstein didn't win more than one Nobel Prize. He only received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for his discovery of the photoelectric effect. That was the only one he received.
Marie Curie is the only person to have won two unshared Nobel Prizes. She won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 and the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1911 for her groundbreaking work in radioactivity.
