Madhu Kumar is an established scientist with experience in the areas of cancer therapy, circulating cell-free DNA, immune therapies, and cancer genetics. In addition to his research, Madhu Kumar serves as a scientific advisor and volunteers as a tutor for Girls, Inc.

Girls, Inc., is a national organization devoted to providing girls with educational and recreational programs to improve their health and well-being and help them to succeed in their endeavors. Girls, Inc., dates back to the industrial revolution and has since continued to serve as support for girls through teaching and creating awareness of girls’ struggles. The organization has a multitude of ways that volunteers can donate to the cause or give their time.

Many of organization’s programs are educationally focused, providing girls with additional learning opportunities in media and economic literacy, science, technology, sexual education, and more. One of these programs is Project BOLD, which focuses on giving participants smart strategies for dealing with life in their home, community, and personal relationships, as well as online. The course also provides self-defense instruction, and older girls are encouraged to take on a project within their own community to assist in the general health and safety of girls in their area.
