After her husband Pierre Curie’s death in 1906, she continued to study radioactive materials. Marie Curie later became the first female Sorbonne professor. She succeeded in measuring the atomic weight of radium more precisely, and in 1910 she also succeeded in separating the metal radium. In 1911, she received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for her discovery of radium and polonium. Repeated experiments weakened her body and she died of leukemia in 1934.
