The Siong-Chi Lin Legacy Grant (Gold) is named in honor of Dr. Siong-Chi Lin, a retired Mayo Clinic physician. Dr. Lin has spent more than 30 years, treating thousands of patients. He has devoted his entire life to helping others, from troubled youths in New York City to caring for those afflicted with sleep and mental disorders at Mayo. A few years ago Dr. Lin was officially diagnosed with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA). Because the public’s attention is focused on more widely known diseases, Multiple System Atrophy is overlooked. MSA patients are confronted with a dim prognosis, lack the kind of patient support network that exists for patients with more common diseases and are left with few treatment options. The Siong-Chi Lin Legacy Grant received funds raised by Dr. Lin’s son, Jeff, when he completed in the Philadelphia Marathon on November 19, 2017. All proceeds from Jeff’s run in the Marathon were donated to the Siong-Chi Lin Legacy Grant for MSA Research and Patient Support.  Help Us Defeat MSA – If you wish to support the Siong-Chi Lin MSA Research and Patient Support Fund, please donate now!
