discovering radium
Eve Curie Labouisse, 102 years of age and daughter of Nobel Laureate Marie Curie, died October 26, 2007.
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 by isolating it from uranium ore through a series of chemical extraction processes. She and her husband, Pierre Curie, demonstrated that the substance emitted highly energetic radiation, which they named "radioactivity." This groundbreaking discovery ultimately led to the development of the field of nuclear chemistry.
Honey, Marie Curie's been pushing up daisies for quite some time now, so I highly doubt any of her relatives are still around to spill the tea with us. But hey, if you're feeling lucky, go ahead and do some digging to see if you can find a distant cousin or two lurking in the shadows. Good luck on your genealogical adventure!
Yes, we still benefit from the work of Marie Curie and Pierre Curie today in the fields of physics and chemistry. Their research on radioactivity led to advancements in medical imaging techniques and radiation therapy for cancer treatment. They also discovered two elements, polonium and radium, that have applications in various industries.
If Marie Curie was still alive today she would be 144

she became a very famous nurse and stuff in fact a very important nurse! :-D
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.
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.

yes and she is still alive
is santa still alive...i think yes, hiding in the back corners of life itself he hides waiting for young and lifeless corpses to play with!
