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!

If you live in America, please watch this. Fascism is here. It's not around the corner. It's here now. Today. None of us are safe. Prepare yourself for revolution.
EDIT: Hey whiny MAGA morons, throwing law-abiding people into a Salvadorean concentration camp with no due process is objectively fascism. Cry about it.

Live event in South Carolina! Dr. Wilson of Debunk the Funk and I will be accepting live debate challenges regarding RFK Jr. and his policies, or vaccines in general. Of course you can also come if you like science and have nothing to debate. We can just celebrate science being awesome, and it's cheaper to just watch. Tickets here: www.pang-burn.com/tickets

Hey all, I recently discovered @GiveInternet, a charity that lets anyone sponsor internet access and laptops for students who can’t afford them. As you are all well aware, I am very passionate about spreading knowledge and increasing public science literacy, which requires the right tools to explore and learn. Many curious minds around the world are held back simply because they lack access to basic digital resources. Here is more info about the organization: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIVpV...
Here’s the exciting part: donations through this link 👉 giveinternet.org/professordave will be DOUBLED! That means your contribution will go twice as far to connect students to the education and opportunities they deserve.
Let’s make this season about giving the gift of knowledge. Together, we can help more young people understand the world and ask the BIG questions. 🌐🙌

This is pretty crazy to say, but on January 4th it will be the 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of this channel! I was trying to think of something special to do to mark the occasion but I couldn't think of anything. Does anyone have any ideas?

Milo gave me a shout out so I want to return the favor, if you enjoyed watching me debunk Billy Carson's pathetic pseudo-archeology, check out Miniminuteman, this is his area of expertise and he goes to town on frauds like Graham Hancock in a similarly relentless style as myself!
