jack-you-dead: The Solvay conference in 1927 on quantum mechanics. When I saw this photo I was immediately curious who the woman in the front row was, being that she was the only woman in a crowd of men. A quick search on wiki turned up the following:  Marie Skłodowska-Curie was a physicist and chemist famous for her pioneering research on radioactivity. She was the first person honored with two Nobel Prizes—in physics and chemistry. She was the first female professor at the University of Paris, and in 1995 became the first woman to be entombed on her own merits in the Panthéon in Paris.
