Physician. Scientist.
Policy Leader.

Dr. Kamal Menghrajani is a board-certified hematologist and medical oncologist whose career spans the frontiers of academic medicine, federal health policy, and translational science. Trained at the University of North Carolina, University of Michigan, and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, she built her clinical expertise in leukemia, clonal hematopoiesis, and genomics-driven oncology.

As a faculty member on MSK's Leukemia Service, Dr. Menghrajani pursued NIH- and ASCO-funded research at the intersection of computational biology and clinical care — developing predictive models that are reshaping how clinicians understand cancer risk.

In 2023, she was selected as a White House Fellow — the first oncologist to serve in that role — where she served as the oncologist for the Cancer Moonshot initiative and as a physician on the Health Outcomes team under the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP). In this role, she shaped federal strategy on cell and gene therapy, AI in healthcare, and health equity.

Dr. Menghrajani currently serves as the inaugural Medical Director for AI at Doximity — the nation's largest professional network for physicians — while continuing to practice oncology at Harvard / Mass General Brigham in Boston. In this dual role, she is shaping how artificial intelligence is developed, evaluated, and responsibly deployed across clinical medicine.

Through Health Insights, LLC, she offers strategic consulting to life sciences companies, health systems, and policy organizations seeking expert guidance at the intersection of oncology, data science, and health policy.
