OverviewResearch 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 Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) project in Microsoft Research aims to enable BCI for the general population. This means non-intrusive methods; fewer number of electrodes and custom-designed signal picking devices. We go towards interactive BCI, which means response times within seconds and using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. In the BCI project are involved researcher from several research groups in Microsoft Research, you can find more about the project at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/brain-computer-interfaces/.
ResponsibilitiesResearch Interns put inquiry and theory into practice. Alongside fellow doctoral candidates and some of the world's best researchers, Research Interns learn, collaborate, and network for life. Research Interns not only advance their own careers, but they also contribute to exciting research and development strides. During the 12-week internship, Research Interns are paired with mentors and expected to collaborate with other Research Interns and researchers, present findings, and contribute to the vibrant life of the community. Research internships are available in all areas of research, and are offered year-round, though they typically begin in the summer. Research Interns in MSR BCI will work on well framed projects that allow for open exploration and collaboration, under the guidance of their mentors. The Research Internship ends with a final presentation open to all Microsoft employees, and ideally results in a peer-reviewed scientific publication. | |
