Marie Sklodowska Curie Brought X-Ray Machines To the Battlefield
During World War I, the scientist invented a mobile x-ray unit, called a “Little Curie,”.
Curie personally trained 150 women to operate it. Her curriculum taught to the women included theoretical instruction about the physics of electricity and X-rays as well as practical lessons in anatomy and photographic processing. When that group had finished its training, they left for the front.

something i've always struggled with is realising that i don't owe people things so to see carol go on the journey of discovery and finally get to say "i don't owe you anything" to the person that she trusted most was so special for me.

The face of CPR doll "Resuscitation Annie" is based off a death mask of a woman who drowned in Paris in the 1880s. Annie is also known as The Unknown Woman of the Seine (L'Inconnue de la Seine).
Although her true identity was never discovered, her face is now famous and teaches us how to save lives every single day.
A real face was used as it was believed that a model that was as lifelike and recognizable as possible would motivate CPR students to take their training more seriously.
