Research Internships at Microsoft provide a dynamic environment for research careers with a network of world-class research labs led by globally-recognized scientists and engineers, who pursue innovation in a range of scientific and technical disciplines to help solve complex challenges in diverse fields, including computing, healthcare, economics, and the environment.

The Health and Life Sciences (HLS) group at Microsoft is dedicated to advancing healthcare and life sciences through innovative technology solutions, fostering collaboration, and driving impactful research to improve patient outcomes and streamline healthcare operations. We leverage various speech technologies to improve patient outcomes, reduce provider burnout and streamline healthcare operations. At the core of this technology is the responsible use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Microsoft’s deep investments in the field are advancing the state of the art in speech recognition, speech synthesis, voice privacy and spoken language understanding. These advancements enable computers to understand and generate natural language, answer complex questions, and interact with their environment through voice. In addition, the company’s researchers are thought leaders on the ethics and societal impacts of intelligent technologies. The research, tools, and services that result from this investment are woven into existing and new products and, at the same time, made open and accessible to the broader community in a bid to accelerate innovation, democratize AI, and solve the world’s most pressing challenges
