In 1922, the Senate of the University of Poznań on the initiative of prof. Adam Wrzosek awarded the dignity of honorary doctor to Marie Skłodowska-Curie. The scientist was the first honorary doctor of the Poznań university. Unfortunately, for various reasons, she did not come to Poznań and receive her diploma. From the diaries of prof. Adam Wrzosek, it is known that the diploma was never even printed. After a hundred years, on the initiative of prof. Tomasz Pospieszny and dr. Iwona Taborska from the Faculty of Chemistry of the of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, the honorary doctorate diploma was handed over to the scientistʼs granddaughter, prof. Hélène Langevin-Joliot. The ceremony was held under the patronage of Her Magnificence the Rector, prof. Bogumiła Kaniewska and the honorary patronage of the Mayor of Poznań, Mr. Jacek Jaśkowiak. The Polish Chemical Society actively participated in the event, and the president of PTCHm, prof. Izabela Nowak presented prof. Hélène Langevin-Joliot, one of the highest distinctions – Honorary Member of the Polish Chemical Society.

The history of radioactivity is inextricably linked with the figures of Marie Skłodowska-Curie, Pierre Curie and Ernest Rutherford. Without a trace of exaggeration, it should be admitted that we owe the knowledge of this phenomenon to them. Thanks to their work and genius, the radiation emitted by the „strangeˮ elements has gained notoriety in the scientific world. Over time, they were joined by other researchers, expanding the foundations of the new science and building a huge palace on them. They also emphasized the practical use of radioactive elements. And although the phenomenon itself was discovered in 1896 by Antoine Henri Becquerel, the birth of radioactivity should be attributed to the pioneering work of Rutherford and the Curies. The discovery of polonium and radium by Marie and Pierre Curie marked the beginning of a fascinating journey that led humanity into the atomic age. Thanks to them, the alchemists’ dream came true.

When Marie Skłodowska-Curie began research on the radiation of uranium compounds discovered by Henri Becquerel, she uncovered two new chemical elements, sparking a revolution in atomic science. From the very beginning, radium was hailed as a miraculous element; itssalts emitted heat, colored porcelain and glass, and emitted a unique glow. Radium quickly found applications in medicine, where it was not only used to treat diseases but also employed in „mild radium therapy” for preventive purposes. Radium, however, possessed not only healing properties but also purported to have the ability to beautify, rejuvenate, prevent, and captivate. A global „radium fever” ensued, leading to the addition of radioactive salts to almost all everyday products. The stories of the „radium girls” and golfer Eben Byers, however, cast a shadow over the fame of radium.

Maria Skłodowska-Curie, the greatest Polish Scientist, was a founding member of the Polish Chemical Society. Attempts to honor her figure in a museum in Warsaw were made successively from the mid-1930s by her siblings, the president and members of the Polish Chemical Society. On the centenary of Madame Curie's birth, a museum managed by the Society was established in Warsaw, in the house of her birth. Half a century later, joint management was taken over by the capital city of Warsaw and the Polish Chemical Society. The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Museum is the only biographical museum of Madame Curie in the world.

Marie Skłodowska-Curie is the only woman awarded the Nobel Prize twice: in physics in 1903 and in chemistry in 1911. She is also the only person to have received these awards in two different scientific disciplines. It is worth noting, however, that she almost did not receive any of them. In 1903, only Pierre Curie and Antoine Becquerel were nominated for the Nobel Prize. It was claimed that Marie Skłodowska-Curie was only her husbandʼs assistant. Thanks to the intervention of Pierre Curie, Marie was also appreciated. In 1911, Madame Curie was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, but after French newspapers revealed her affair with Paul Langevin, some Swedish scientists demanded that she resign from receiving the prize. Strength of character, courage and independence made Marie Skłodowska-Curie not give in to attacks from public opinion and lies, and she received both Nobel Prizes with dignity, thus creating her legend.
