Curie had a lab, so Marie was
introduced to him in spring 1894. He had the impressive title of Laboratory
Chief at the Paris Municipal School of Industrial Physics and Chemistry.
In fact his lab facilities were poor, but he let Marie work there. Curie,
about 10 years older than Marie, had made important scientific discoveries
on magnetism and crystals. But he had never bothered to complete a doctoral
thesis.

the relationship between Pierre
and Marie deepened, he convinced her that she should pursue science in
Paris, not return to Poland for good. She in turn convinced him to write
up his magnetism research and get a doctoral degree. He was then promoted
to a professorship, but his teaching duties grew, and his lab got no better.
