Dr. Joe Schwarcz is Director of the McGill Office for Science and Society. He is well known for his informative and entertaining public lectures on topics ranging from the chemistry of love to the science of aging and is fondly referred to as Dr. Joe. He hosts "The Dr. Joe Show" on Montreal's CJAD radio; writes the newspaper column The Right Chemistry for the Montreal Gazette; and has authored the best-selling books such as Radar, Hula Hoops and Playful Pigs; An Apple a Day; and Monkeys, Myths, and Molecules. His newest is book, Superfoods, Silkworms, and Spandex: Science and Pseudoscience in Everyday Life. Dr. Joe is also an amateur magician and often spices up his presentations with a little magic, and like most magicians he has a pronounced disdain for pseudoscience and charlatans, from psychics to so called alternative health practitioners. © 2024 Dedham TV.
