Her great awards and research inspired many other women. I chose Marie Curie because she is an inspiration to anyone who would like to become a scientst. Her nobel prizes that she received for her many acompishments represents the hard-work and research that she contributed to the field of science. Altogether I think that she was a great scientist and motivated others to follow in her footsteps.
