Insights from the Microsoft AI Tour 2026 in Munich – Between Vision, Sovereignty and Real‑World Applications

A personal recap from the Microsoft AI Tour 2026 in Munich, covering Satya Nadella’s keynote, multimodal AI research in healthcare, sovereign cloud architectures, and emerging trends around AI agents, Power Platform, and the revival of Excel as an AI‑driven data interface.

Machine learning workflow for evaluating genetic variants based on protein structure embeddings

Missense variants, that is, single amino acid substitutions in proteins, are often difficult to assess. Our machine learning workflow uses protein structure-based graph embeddings to predict the pathogenicity of such variants. In doing so, the structural information enhances existing approaches like the CADD score and provides new insights for genomic medical diagnostics.
