In November 2013, he gave a TED talk on clusters of galaxies in New Orleans, LA.[3] Together with Harvard astronomy chair Abraham Loeb and atmospheric scientist Gonzalo Gonzalez Abad, Lin proposed a novel way to search for extraterrestrial intelligence by targeting exoplanets with industrial pollution.[4][5][6] Lin's unconventional work also includes proposing a statistical theory of human population[7] which explains Zipf's Law and proposing a novel test for panspermia in the galaxy.[8] He is currently a physics graduate student at Princeton University [9].
