Dr. Douglass Jackson, Clinical Professor of Oral Health Sciences at the University of Washington School of Dentistry, serves as the UW School of Dentistry’s Associate Dean for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI). He has led many innovative programs locally and nationally that introduce oral health careers to youth and young adults who have been historically underrepresented in the oral health professions. These programs have helped healthcare institutions build cultures that value inclusion and belonging.
Dr. Jackson holds BA and DMD degrees from the University of Pittsburgh, an MS in clinical research design and statistical analysis from the University of Michigan, and a PhD in oral biology and neuroscience from the University of Minnesota. He has also served residencies in Pittsburgh and Minneapolis. He is a diplomate of the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology and a fellow of the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology.
