Question

Marie Curie (1903, 1911): The mother of modern physics was the first woman ever to win not one, but two, Nobel prizes for her seminal discoveries in physics and chemistry. In 1903, she was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics, along with her husband Pierre Curie and French physicist Antoine Henri Becquerel for their research into spontaneous radiation. A second Nobel followed in 1911, this time for chemistry, when Curie was honoured alone for her work on radioactivity.
Frederick Sanger (1958, 1980), dubbed the father of genomics, was the only person to win the chemistry Nobel twice. Sanger was the sole winner of the prize in 1958 for his work on the structure of proteins, notably insulin, and then shared it with two others, Paul Berg and Walter Gilbert of the United States, in 1980 for pioneering developments in DNA sequencing that are still being used today.
ICRC and UNHCR, two organisations have won multiple Nobel Peace Prizes. The International Committee of the Red Cross won in 1917, 1944 and 1963 and the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees won in 1954 and 1981.
