Marie Curie didn't necessarily aim to hire women in her lab, but she didn't have anything AGAINST women, and so ended up creating a network of more than 45 women trainees who changed (and are still changing) the course of science. By @clarakm.bsky.social with Dava Sobel on her new book 🧪
Marie Curie is well known for her chemistry achievements but less so for helping other women succeed in science

Happy to see that at least her Polish heritage was mentioned, (in the last paragraph) but i think she should be called Skłodowska/Sklodowska anyway, it would just feel respectful. (plus free bonus points from Polish readers ^^)
Imagine leaders not having anything against women! So it CAN be! Fair pay, Fair hours, Fair leave, Fair benefits for ALL.
Its Marie SKŁADOWSKA Curie
Oh, more Dava Sobel, hurrah!
