Mich Lin is a researcher and PhD student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Cambridge, MA, USA). They are currently exploring architectural designs to support behavioral health in isolated, confined, extreme, and resource-confined environments, with a particular focus on long-duration space exploration. 

Through a multi-disciplinary approach blending bioastronautical engineering, data science, architecture, human-centered design, and psychology, Mich’s portfolio explores the relationships between the human and the environment at various scales. 

Raised in the coastal harbor of Keelung, Taiwan, they have a special affinity to the ocean and enjoy SCUBA and freediving, as well as swimming and surfing.
