After a short period in heavy industry, iii 1925, at 1l1e recommendation of Professor Laiigcviu, he entered illc Ratliuni lu- stitute where he became an assistant to lilme. Marie Curie. At the same time, he conducted research on his own, and, in order to obtain a professorship, resumed his secondary studies. Passing his second baccalaureat, and then the "Licence est-science," he undertook a tlicsis on the technical properties of radio elements and inactive elements in extrcmly diluted solutions. He collaborated with Marie Curie in hcr rc- search On radioactivity. In 1926, hc married Irene Curie who also worked as an assistant to her mother (Marie Curie). He took ti very active part in the Resistance. In January i946, General de Gaulie appointed him head of the newly created French Commission on Atomic Energy. For his activities in the Resistance, joliet-Curie was promoted, on May i7, i946, to Commander of the Ingion tPHonQeur.
