About this listen
When World War I erupted, wounded soldiers flooded the front lines—but doctors lacked a way to see inside the body. Enter Marie Curie. In this episode, we explore how the legendary scientist left her lab, built the first mobile X-ray units, and revolutionized battlefield medicine. With over a million images captured and countless lives saved, Curie’s wartime innovation laid the foundation for modern imaging—and her legacy continues to shape how we see the world today.
