When was the last time you had a history lesson? Perhaps it was watching a documentary or listening to a podcast centered around prominent events in the past?

Marie Curie died 80 years ago today from leukaemia caused by her research. During World War 1 she helped to equip ambulances with x-ray equipment, which she herself drove to the front lines. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the only woman to win in two fields, and the only person to win in multiple sciences. ‪#‎alwaysremembered‬ ‪#‎OnThisDay‬
