Biography
Dale Dagar Maglalang (he/they) is an Assistant Professor at NYU Silver School of Social Work. He was previously a Postdoctoral Research Associate with the Center for Alcohol and Addiction Studies at the Brown University School of Public Health. Dr. Maglalang’s research examines social, cultural, and structural determinants of health, specifically how racism and other forms of oppression influence Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) populations.

Furthermore, his research also aims to intervene on the negative effects of racism and other forms of oppression through the implementation of randomized clinical trials informed by strength-based approaches, critical theories and frameworks, and the use of technology.
