Professor Koji Yatani of the University of Tokyo, who was a Microsoft Research Asia researcher with internship experience in Microsoft Research Labs in both Redmond and Cambridge, advised the young scientists to try to do research that differentiates them. Dr. Ying Yan, a Microsoft Research Asia researcher, echoed professor Yatani\u2019s points: \u201cToday, the engineering experience in the Bing team turns out to be more than helpful when I work with product teams on technology transfer,\u201c she said. Dr. Yan also suggested the students focus on one specific topic and go deep in the first stage of their career, and then try to do broader research later in their careers.<\/p>\n

The participants at the event appreciated this opportunity to get inspired, learn and expand their connections. I believe this forum, with its high-quality content, will have a long-lasting impact on these promising young scientists. Moreover, I sincerely look forward to this young generation making contributions with significant research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
