Pierre Curie was one of the founding fathers of modern physics and a co-winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, which he shared with Marie Curie and Henri Becquerel. The scientist was born on May 15, 1859, into an intellectual family in Paris. His father was a talented doctor, and his mother was a homemaker who knew how to create a special atmosphere of warmth, comfort, peace, and love. Pierre was home-schooled and from adolescence got interested in the exact sciences. At the age of 16, he received his bachelor’s degree and two years later his science license (equivalent to a master’s degree) at the Sorbonne University. Pierre Curie dedicated his entire life to research work and wanted to meet a woman who shared his passion for science. By that time he had already been renowned in scientific community due to his discovery of piezoelectricity.
