28-409: Is a historical museum focusing on radiological research. It is located in the 5th arrondissement at 1, rue Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris , France , and open Wednesday to Saturday, from 1pm to 5pm; admission is free. The museum was renovated in 2012, thanks to a donation from Ève Curie . In 1914, the laboratory was directed by Marie Curie. The museum was established in 1934, after Curie's death, on

42-557: The Radium Institute. If Economy - a social science - is excluded, 50% i.e 3 Nobel Prizes out of 6 received by French scientific women are affiliated to the Curie Institute. Hence why it is considered that, based on internationally recognised prizes garnered by its researchers, no other research center in the world has hosted that many pioneering women scientists. Moreover, Curie mentored upwards of 45 scientific women from all over

56-478: The biological and medical effects of radioactivity . After receiving a joint Nobel Prize with her husband Pierre in 1903, Maria Skłodowska-Curie won a second Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1911. During World War One, Skłodowska-Curie used it to teach nurses about radiology . Maria Skłodowska-Curie and Claudius Regaud established the Foundation Curie in 1920, a public interest institution.
