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!

    Eukaryotic Cells Part 2: Plant Cells

    It's not just animals that are made of cells, it's plants too! Plant cells are very similar to animal cells, but they have some stuff that animal cells don't, like chloroplasts, that allow for photosynthesis. Let's take a tour through a plant cell now!

    Choosing Between SN1/SN2/E1/E2 Mechanisms

    This is it! This is what you've been freaking out about in class! How the hell do you choose the mechanism that's gonna happen? Is it SN2, SN1, E2, or E1? Woe is you, what will you do. Why not listen to Professor Dave? He's got the hottest chemistry tips in town. That cute boy or girl in class will be so impressed when you apply what you've learned here and have all the answers at the next lecture. Don't worry, I won't tell. But you should, I need the promo.

    Introduction to Phylum Chordata: Chordate Characteristics and the Chordate Cladogram

    We have now completed our study of every single animal phylum but one: Chordata. This is the one that contains humans, as well as the most common animals we interact with every day, like our pets. There are about 81,600 species of chordates, with tremendous diversity among them, from teeny tiny little frogs all the way up to gigantic blue whales. What are the five characteristics that all chordates have in common? And since we have just one phylum left to go, we will switch to a cladogram for the chordates specifically, so what does that look like? There is so much to discuss!

    Aromaticity and Huckel's Rule

    Why do some molecules smell good? No, they're not cookie molecules. They probably have a fully conjugated polyunsaturated ring system. Aromaticity, as it turns out, just has to do with these rings as well as Huckel's rule.

    Destiny Loves Genocide

    After mentioning Israel's genocide numerous times in other content regarding Christian theocrats, Peter Thiel's puppets, or figures like Avi Loeb, many people have asked to me to just go ahead and make a long-form video about my views on Israel. I had avoided this since I'm a science communicator and prefer not to make exclusively political content, but after a twerp named Destiny took it upon himself to call me a Nazi, I had an excuse to do it. So here it is. Israel is objectively committing genocide, Zionism is the vile ideology behind it, and here is everything you need to hear to understand exactly what Israel is, and why they are an existential threat to all of humanity.

    Introduction to the Apollo Program

    One of the most spectacular achievements of the 20th century was the series of moon landings performed by NASA's Apollo Program. These occurred between 1969 and 1972. What is the story of the program that put humans on the lunar surface for the first time? Let's go through all the details, with the help of extremely rare archival footage that will captivate you! This first video will serve as an overview for the entire program, describing all of the vehicles and equipment involved, some important contextual information regarding the establishment of the program, as well as the chronology of Apollo 1 through Apollo 6, including the devastating Apollo 1 fire that tragically claimed the lives of three astronauts.

    Denis Noble is a Clown

    Go to consensus.app for a new way to search through primary scientific literature! You know how creationists often blindly reference a particular scholar, as though the things the scholar says somehow substantiate their ridiculous views? These days that scholar is Denis Noble. He's a physiologist who thinks he's debunked Neo-Darwinism and revived the long discarded Lamarckian model of evolution. Spoiler alert: he hasn't. He only offers a pathetic distortion of principles in evolutionary biology which are so disgraceful that it raises the question of who is paying him to do it. Don't worry, all your questions will be answered and all of Noble's ridiculous rhetoric will be dismantled in this video! Special thanks to Zach B.
