Shi Lin is an independent researcher and scientific infrastructure architect working at the intersection of spatial biology, volumetric imaging, and scientific knowledge graphs. He led a UC Berkeley–Academia Sinica Taiwan collaboration on modular tissue clearing and light-field volumetric imaging for cardiac regeneration studies, spanning academic labs, hospital-based translational research, and industry partners including ZEISS. This experience motivated BioGraph, a platform for capturing experimental lineage, decision provenance, and reusable institutional knowledge in complex 3D histology and core-facility workflows.
