In 1934 she was the first scientist to mention the idea of nuclear fission, in which Lise Meitner later worked.

She had other awards but never won a Nobel Prize, although she was nominated three times for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. She always worked together with her husband.

For being a woman, and also for numerous scientific discontents, she faced many professional obstacles. Perhaps the accusations of linking the Nazi regime, which were never proven, influenced the poor assessment of her contribution to science.
