Marie Skłodowska Curie (1867-1934) was a Polish and naturalized-French physicist and chemist. She conducted pioneering research on radioactivity with her husband and discovered the radioactive elements such as radium and polonium (named in honor of her country poland). Madam Curie was awarded two Nobel Prizes — one in physics (1903) which she won jointly with her husband, and another in chemistry (1911). She was the first person to win two Nobel Prizes. Her daughter Irène Joliot-Curie followed in her mother's footsteps, won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1935 sharing it with her husband. This achievement is also called as the Curie family legacy that a family altogether won five Nobel Prizes. Curie family legacy helped the world to discover the present X-Ray. Madam Curie died in 1934 due to aplastic anemia from exposure to radiation of her own research.
