Abstract

Marie Curie was born in Warsaw in1867. She graduated first in her class in her undergraduate programs in physics and mathematics at Sorbonne University, and she was one of the first women to earn a PhD. She was the first woman to win a Nobel prize (in physics, together with her husband, Pierre Curie), and she was also the first person to win a second Nobel prize in another category (chemistry).

Her life is an example of dedication to science based on altruism, personal growth, and tenacity. Being the first woman to break through so many barriers in a totally male-dominated science makes her an emblematic figure in the fight for equal opportunities and human rights.

This article reviews her most important contributions to science in general and to diagnostic radiology in particular through her participation in the French military’s radiological plan during the First World War.

Resumen

Marie Curie nació en Varsovia en 1867, se licenció en Física y Matemáticas en la Universidad de la Sorbona, siendo la primera de su promoción, y fue una de las primeras mujeres en tener un doctorado. Fue la primera mujer en ganar un premio Nobel, en Física, junto a su marido Pierre Curie, y también la primera persona en obtener un segundo Nobel y en otra categoría: Química.

Su vida es un ejemplo de dedicación a la ciencia desde el altruismo, de superación personal y tenacidad. Fue la primera mujer en romper tantas barreras, en una ciencia hasta entonces masculina, que su figura constituye un hito en la lucha por la igualdad de oportunidades y los derechos humanos.

En este trabajo se revisan sus principales aportaciones a la ciencia y, en particular, al radiodiagnóstico a través de su participación en el plan radiológico militar francés de la Primera Guerra Mundial.
