Research Intern - ML and Computational Biology for the Immune System

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 Immunomics group within Health Futures is dedicated to this vision. We build large-scale models of immune responses and immune cells, integrating statistical modeling and machine learning (ML) techniques such as representation learning, survival analysis, causal inference and generative modeling, alongside foundational immunological research. Our approach combines statistical modeling and advanced ML techniques with deep biological insights into areas like cancer biology, antigen presentation, an aging immune system and immune cell behavior. We believe that both cutting-edge machine learning and domain expertise are crucial to driving meaningful progress.
