The first female scientist to win the Nobel Prize in two different fields was Marie Curie. She made groundbreaking contributions to both physics and chemistry. Curie's first Nobel Prize in 1903 was awarded for her research on radioactivity, a term she coined. Later, in 1911, she received her second Nobel in Chemistry for her discovery of the elements polonium and radium. Her relentless pursuit of knowledge and her profound impact on science have made her a symbol of women's achievements in STEM fields.
