У статті висвітлено основні віхи життя двох видатних жінок-науковиць, які стали іконами для багатьох жінок та дівчат, надаючи їм сили у пошуках життєвого шляху. Марія Кюрі, двічі лауреатка Нобелівської премії в різних галузях (1903 та 1911 роки), відкрила нові елементи – полоній і радій, виділила радій і дослідила його природу та сполуки. Її донька Ірен Жоліо-Кюрі, лауреатка Нобелівської премії 1935 року, синтезувала нові радіоактивні елементи. Їхня наукова та громадська діяльність розширила та поглибила розуміння фізичного світу, здійснила прориви в медицині та змінила уявлення суспільства про роль жінок.
