Madam Curie,------to scientific research ,was-----the Nobel

两个方面来看这个问题:
devoted 是一个形容词,所以有  be devoted to something 
devote 是一个动词, one devotes oneself to something,而不是one devotes to something.
所以如果你当成分词看的话, Madam Curie,devoting herself to research,was .是正确的.
或者就按你的devoted to research 正确. 

 本例devoted是一个形容词. 
再问： 那请问如果用上who的话该怎么填呢？谢谢
再答： Re: 那请问如果用上who的话该怎么填呢？谢谢 Madam Curies, who devoted herself to research, was awarded... Madam Curies, devoting herself to research, was awarded... 其实就是who devoted herself在缩略形式...
