The cornerstone of Dr. Lin's work is keeping medicine focused on humans - patients, providers, families and trainees - and not lost in technology and algorithms. His research and educational interests span (1) Developing and testing novel medical technologies, (2) Improving the health of Asian populations with Precision and Population Health, and (3) Increasing expression and interconnections in the Health Community with the Humanities and Arts. In 2018, he co-founded and co-directs, with Dr. Latha Palaniappan, the Center for Asian Health Research and Education (CARE) which aims to improve the health of Asians everywhere. In 2021, Dr. Lin was appointed the Director of Medical Humanities and Arts at Stanford. In addition to his work in Asian Health and Medical Humanities, he started and co-teaches "MED 216: Generative AI and Medicine" and is working on several Generative AI related research projects. Since its inception, one of CARE's focus areas has been to increase research, education, and awareness of Lung Cancer in People who have Never Smoked. Dr. Lin himself was diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung Cancer (non-small cell lung cancer) in 2024 and started a Stanford Medical School course centered around his case. His experience has served to further amplify CARE's efforts to bring attention to this disease that has a devastating impact on Asian communities.
