Ir猫ne Curie
Ir猫ne Joliot-Curie was a French scientist, the daughter of Marie Curie and the wife of Fr茅d茅ric Joliot-Curie. Together with her husband, Ir猫ne Curie was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1935 for their discovery of artificial radioactivity. Furthermore, she was the first female undersecretary of state in France.
Ir猫ne Curie became actively involved in promoting women's education and was passionate in the feminist movement, especially for sciences. She continuously applied for the French Academy of Sciences, an elite scientific organization, knowingly that she would be denied. She did so to draw attention to the fact they did not accept women into the organization.
Ir猫ne Curie is a symbol for the next generation of female scientists 果冻传媒 is looking for.
