Marie Skłodowska-Curie is a Polish scientist who discovered the chemical elements radium and polonium.

Maria was born on 07.11.1867 in Warsaw. He is the fifth and youngest child of teachers Bronislava and Vladislav Sklodowski. Older brothers and sisters of Maria (who was named Mania in the family) - Zofia (1862-1881), Josef (1863-1937, physician-therapist), Bronislava (1865-1939, physician and first director of the Radium Institute) and Helena (1866 -1961, teacher and public figure). The family lived in poverty.

When Maria was 10 years old, her mother died of tuberculosis, and her father was fired for pro-Polish sentiments and was forced to occupy lower-paid positions. The death of her mother, and soon the sisters of Zofia, became the reason that the girl abandoned Catholicism and became an agnostic.

At the age of 10, Maria began to attend a boarding school, and then a gymnasium for girls, from which she graduated with a gold medal. Maria could not get a higher education, since only men were admitted to Polish universities. Then Maria and her sister Bronislava decided to go to the courses of the underground Flying University, where women were also accepted. Maria offered to take turns to study, helping each other with money.
