On the wall of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine is a stone plaque engraved with the name of the Polish Nobel laureate, scientist Maria Skłodowska-Curie. The Polish chemist is one of 23 people chosen to be honoured. The plaque was placed on the 120th anniversary of the school. It was a historic moment also due to the fact that the Skłodowska-Curie plaque was the first of the plaques honouring a woman.
