Professor Dave Explains

Welcome! I have a knack for explaining stuff and I want to share some knowledge with you.

I received a BA in chemistry from Carleton College, and performed graduate studies in both synthetic organic chemistry and science education at Cal State Northridge, receiving an MA in the latter. Prior to this I taught for about a decade in various high school and undergraduate settings, specializing in organic chemistry but also teaching general chemistry, physics, and biology.

This channel is for students at the high school and undergraduate level, but it is also for members of the general public who just want to know more about the world and how things work. My goal is to increase science literacy in our society, so please share these tutorials with anyone that you think might enjoy them. Happy learning!

    Will Synthetic Vitamins Make Me Explode?

    This was my final submission for the American Chemical Society's ChemChamps contest in 2015. The words natural and synthetic are thrown around a lot these days, when talking about foods, medicine, and other things. But what do they really mean, and how are they different? Is one necessarily better than the other? Can the bioactivity of a molecule depend on its pathway? Let's answer these questions and more.

    Cardinal Numbers in Latin

    Let's learn how to count in Latin! This will require that we learn the cardinal numbers, also sometimes called the Arabic numeral system. This can get a little weird because some numbers decline while others are invariable, and it's not very intuitive which ones they are. But there's nothing to do but go through them, so let's get started! Script by Patrizia Farina, Professor of Italian at Western Connecticut State University and Purchase College.

    Ancient India Part 2: The Vedic Period (1500 – 500 BCE)

    The first era of Indian civilization that left a written record behind is known as “Vedic” because it produced the Vedas, which is Sanskrit for “knowledge”. These are the earliest works composed in Sanskrit and the oldest texts of Hinduism. Let's examine the Vedic period, including its four varnas, or classes, and the organization of various states in the region over a millennium or so.

    The Cell Cycle and its Regulation

    Your cells have to divide when you're growing, to heal wounds, and to replace dead cells. But how do cells know when to divide and when not to divide? We can't have cells just growing willy-nilly! That's what cancer is, and that's bad. Luckily, cells obey something called the cell cycle, which is regulated by a variety of signaling molecules, which tell the cell when to divide and when to chill out. Let's look at the phases of this cycle and some of its regulatory mechanisms now.

    Avi Loeb's Alien Grift is Crumbling

    Remember Avi Loeb? The Harvard astronomer turned pointless grifter who never shuts up about how everything is aliens? He's up to his old tricks again! He's making garbage YouTube content, he's knee deep in UAP psyop slop from the White House, and most importantly, he's whining a whole lot about me!

    Scientific Notation and Dimensional Analysis

    In science, sometimes we have to talk about very large and very small numbers. We need a special way to do this called scientific notation. We also need a way to convert between different units of measurement. I know, I know, you hate math. But it's really easy math, and Professor Dave will help make it even easier!

    Sabine Hossenfelder Joins the Eric Weinstein Damage Control Parade

    At this point it is common knowledge that Eric Weinstein is a pointless fraud paid by Peter Thiel to spew propaganda all over the internet. As so many of us have long suspected, Sabine Hossenfelder is exactly that as well. This was made abundantly clear when Sabine recently joined the Eric Weinstein damage control parade after his embarrassing encounter with Sean Carroll on Piers Morgan, and then my video with Christian Ferko even further exposing GU as absolutely nothing and the details of his Perimeter Institute visit. But just in case that wasn't enough to convince you, allow me to take you through some of her other very recent content to demonstrate how her disgusting rhetoric is 100% aligned with Eric's script and Thiel's agenda.
