Experimental physicist Chien-Shiung Wu has been called the "Queen of Nuclear Research." Born in China in the early 20th century, Wu moved to the United States to study physics after graduating from college. Her work on nuclear physics during and after World War II disproved longstanding beliefs in the field, and many believe she should have won the Nobel Prize. Explore the fascinating life of the "First Lady of Physics."
