Dirac developed a equation of motion for the wavefunction of the [[electron]] based on [[Theory of relativity|relativity]]. Dirac predicted the existence of the [[positron]], the electron's [[antiparticle]], which was subsequently discovered by [[Carl Anderson]] in 1932. Dirac was awarded th eNobel Prize in 1932, the youngest scientist ever to win it.  Dirac was the founder of [[quantum electrodynamics]].

Dirac published the "[[Principles of Quantum Mechanics]]" in 1930, which introduced the widely used [[delta]] [[function]] and [[bra-ket notation]].  Inspired in part by this book, the physicist [[Richard Feynman]] later proposed a path integral formulation of quantum mechanics in 1948.

Dirac spent most of his career at Cambridge University; he later taught at Florida State University.
