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!

    Metabolism and ATP

    How does your body break down the food you eat to generate the energy you need to get through your day? What form of energy is this, anyway? Let's go over some of the basics of metabolic processes, and introduce ATP, the currency of cellular energy.

    James Monroe: Last Cocked Hat (1817 - 1825)

    You've heard of the Monroe doctrine, perhaps? This is the guy! Well, John Quincy Adams wrote it... but everyone liked this guy. They liked him so much that his entire presidency was called "The Era of Good Feelings". His story starts all the way back during the Revolutionary War, where he fought alongside George Washington, so let's learn a little bit about this guy, who was the last of the founding fathers to be president.

    Mechanisms of DNA Damage and Repair

    Remember how the Ninja Turtles came to be? Yes you do. It was the ooze! A radioactive ooze that mutated their DNA in just the right way to give them the ability to walk upright, talk, and do ninjutsu. Now, I'm as a big a Turtle fan as they come (Donatello is my main man) but this is a highly inaccurate way to portray mutation. Let's learn about the real ways that your DNA can become damaged, and the strategies nature has developed to combat these risks.

    The Early Middle Ages: Charlemagne and His Successors

    Let's kick off our study of the Middle Ages by looking at Western Europe. The Roman Empire had splintered into two halves. In the east there was the Byzantine Empire, but the west had split up into separate kingdoms rules by various Germanic tribes. Over time this morphed into the Holy Roman Empire, based in modern day Germany. Charlemagne was the first ruler of this empire, so let's learn about him and other associated figures.

    Nucleic Acids: DNA and RNA

    We've been hearing about DNA since the third grade, and we all know that it's a double helix with little ladder rungs. But now we are ready to understand this molecule on a more fundamental level, which will enable to us to understand how this molecule can serve as the genetic code.

    Lipids Part 2: Steroids

    Steroids have gotten a pretty bad rap! In reality, they're not just the big bad anabolic steroids. This class of molecules includes many vitamins as well as cholesterol. Cholesterol has also gotten a bad rap! We need cholesterol for our cell membranes to be rigid enough to stay intact, and for our bodies to build other important molecules.
