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. 

Our Societal Resilience team is seeking Research Interns to join us in pushing the boundaries of AI capabilities with large language models (LLMs) and multimodal models. Our mission is to prepare for the unknown challenges of the future by developing resilient systems and technologies that can support societal and individual resilience during times of crisis. 

The research focuses on memory and orchestration within LLMs and multimodal models. We are particularly interested in developing new methods for leveraging and training various types of embeddings, such as graph embeddings and multimodal embeddings, creating advanced retrieval augmented generation (RAG) systems, and conducting specialized context-specific fine-tuning to build more capable and adaptive models. We believe that these capabilities will play a critical role in building resilience by amplifying the ability of individuals and organizations to respond to uncertainty.
