Do you recognise the married couple that were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1935?
The radiochemist Irène Joliot-Curie was a battlefield radiologist, activist, politician, and daughter of two of the most famous scientists in the world: Marie and Pierre Curie. Along with her husband, Frédéric, she discovered the first-ever artificially created radioactive atoms, paving the way for innumerable medical advances, especially in the fight against cancer.
The couple met after World War I, when Irène became her mother’s assistant at the Radium Institute. There her mother (Marie Sklodowska Curie) asked her to train fellow researcher, Frédéric Joliot. As Irène taught this chemical engineer about the various methods of their radiochemical lab, she found in Joliot a partner in work who could also be a partner in life. The two young scientists married in 1926.
Nine years later, in 1935, the pair were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their work "in recognition of their synthesis of new radioactive elements."

Nobel Prize "If it is true that one is seriously thinking about me (for the Prize), I very much wish to be considered together with Madame Curie with respect to our research on radioactive bodies."
In a letter in 1903, several members of the l'Académie des Sciences, including Henri Poincaré and Gaston Darboux, had nominated Becquerel and Pierre Curie for the Prize in Physics. Marie's name was not mentioned.
This caused Gösta Mittag-Leffler, a professor of mathematics at Stockholm University College, to write to Pierre Curie. That letter has not survived but Pierre Curie's answer, dated on 6 August, 1903, has been preserved. The quote above is an extract from Pierre Curie's letter.
The 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Antoine Henri Becquerel, Pierre Curie (pictured left) and Marie Curie, née Sklodowska (pictured right).
