A Laboratory Scientist

I wanted to learn about someone that worked in a science lab. Marie Curie was a scientist from Poland.   She did a lot of science things.  Her mother died from 'burculosis. She studied hard in school.  Marie was a teacher to help her sister go to doctor school.

Marie moved to France to become a scientist because she could not go to school in Poland.  In France she found special chemicals and won the Nobel Prize for scientists.  She got to work with the person she loved everyday, her husband Pierre. During the war (WW1) she created X-Ray equipment to help the French army men.  She closed her eyes and died.



"Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less."
-Marie Curie
