Digital pathology helps decode tumor microenvironments for precision immunotherapy. In joint work with Providence and UW, we’re sharing Prov-GigaPath, the first whole-slide pathology foundation model, for advancing clinical research.
Welcome to Research Focus, a series of blog posts that highlights notable publications, events, code/datasets, new hires and other milestones from across the research community at Microsoft. Large language models (LLMs) have shown remarkable performance in generating text similar to that created by people, proving…
Microsoft Research and Cyted have collaborated to build novel AI models (opens in new tab) to scale the early detection of esophageal cancer. The AI-supported methods demonstrated the same diagnostic performance as the existing manual workflow, potentially reducing the pathologist's workload by up to 63%.…
Molecular geometry modeling is a powerful tool for understanding the intricate relationships between molecular structure and biological activity – a field known as structure-activity relationships (SAR). The main premise of SAR is that the biological activity of a molecule is dictated by its specific chemical…
