Have any French women won the Nobel Prize in Physics?

  • No

  • Yes

  • Maybe

  • Not Sure

Answer

The answer is no, as of my last knowledge update in September 2021. The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to several women, but none of them have been from France. Marie Curie, a Polish-French scientist, won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903, but she was not French by birth.
