About Microsoft Research
At Microsoft, research plays a crucial role in driving those breakthroughs. Our researchers, scientists, and engineers have influenced virtually every Microsoft product we have released in the past three decades, including Cortana, Azure ML, Office, Xbox, HoloLens, Skype, and Windows.
These leading industry thinkers also contribute to important basic and applied research in fields ranging from healthcare to economics. They also provide thought leadership to both business and engineering leaders in fields such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing.
Microsoft researchers believe in sharing this fundamental, groundbreaking research with the world. We do this through products and services we release, such as Project Oxford and CNTK, and through partnerships with leading universities and research organizations.
At Microsoft, we believe in the value of research, for our own work and for the world we live in.
