Irene Joliot-Curie, daughter of Pierre and Marie Curie, carried the Curie name after her parents died. Irène Curie went on to become Nobel Laureates in Physics and Chemistry. Irène Curie worked together with her mother to provide mobile X-ray units during World War I. She resumed her studies at the university in Paris after the war and later worked at the institute that her parents had founded. It was there that she conducted her Nobel Prize-awarded work together with Frédéric Joliot, her future husband in 1926. Her parents were politically active and worked to combat fascism and Nazism.
Family-Her parents were Pierre and Marie Curie. Her father was a French physical chemist, he won the Nobel Prize with Marie Curie because they discovered radium and polonium during radioactivity. He was born May 15, 1859 in Paris, France and he died on April 19, 1906, in Paris. Her mother is famous for her work on radioactivity and she won the Nobel Prize twice. She was born November 7, 1867, in Warsaw, Congress Kingdom of Poland, Russian Empire and she died July 4, 1934, near Sallanches, France. She had one sister named Eve Curie. Eve Curie is a French and American writer, journalist and pianist. Eve was born December 6, 1904, in Paris, France and she died on October 22, 2007, in New York City. …show more content…
Accomplishment-
Irene Curie won the Nobel Prize for discoveries of artificial radioactivity (artificial- is made by humans and radioactivity is the spontaneously emitting radiation resulting from changes in the nuclei of atoms of the element.)
How is accomplishment related to God?
Acts 17:29 says “Therefore since we are God’s offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone--an image made by human design and skill.” I think that means that nothing is necessarily “human made” we took thing that God has made and put it into another form or we explored we to it's core.
Conclusion-
In conclusion i learned that women can have a major effect in the science world and that you can be anything you want male or female. Irene Joliot-Curie is a scientist that some people really look up to for determination and inspiration. I never knew that there was human made radioactivity and honestly i didn't know what that meant and Irene Curie brought tto my attention that humans have made artificial radioactivity.
