The Kosciuszko Foundation has the pleasure of inviting you to:
"Maria Sklodowska Curie – A Pioneer for Women in Science?"
For more than 100 years, Maria Sklodowska Curie has been inspiring generations of scientists around the world. “Madame Curie” (1867-1934) was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and the only woman to receive two Nobel Prizes, and the only woman to win the Nobel Prize in two scientific fields. She was also the first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris.
In 1927, in a letter sent to Kosciuszko Foundation’s Founder, Stephen Mizwa, Marie Curie agreed to establish a scholarship fund in her name. As part of the KF online programs, we have the pleasure of inviting you to the webinar discussing her life, her body of work, and her legacy as Poland’s greatest scientist.
