Curie Institute (Warsaw)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Marie Sklodowska-Curie Institute of Oncology in Warsaw was founded in 1932 as the Radium Institute by Maria Sklodowska-Curie herself in cooperation with the Polish Government (especially President Ignacy Moscicki).
After the World War II, the Institute changed its name into Marie Sklodowska-Curie Institute of Oncology.
Today, it works as a specialised health institute of the Polish Ministry of Health. It has also regional branches in Gliwice and Kraków.
It is the leading and most specialised cancer research and treatment center in Poland.
