The person i admire is
Marie curie

I admire her because she was the first


woman to graduate in Physical Sciences
and to receive the Nobel Prize in
Physics in 1903 with her husband,
Pierre Curie.

Marie curie was a French nationalized


Polish physicist and chemist, she passed
away at the age of 66 in Passy, ​France.

Reasons why I admire her


5
Because everything was
strength and overcoming

his mother died of tuberculosis when he was 10 years


old, and his older sister did it a few years after the
typhus.
6
Because he fought against
xenophobia and machismo

• She was a woman and a foreigner in Paris. Each


achievement he obtained cost him twice as much as
any of his peers. But, with tenacity and effort,
Madame Curie managed to stand out in a time
where machismo and xenophobia were present
everywhere.
7
Because she sacrificed her life
for science

Ironically, it was the radioactivity that ended up


killing her. He died of leukemia on July 4, 1934, at the
age of 67, after decades of suffering the harmful
effects of radio due to the number of hours in the
laboratory without protection.
