Lin Mosei (born 30 October 1887, disappeared 11 March 1947) was a Taiwanese academic, educator, and the first Taiwanese to receive a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree in the United States. He was also a calligrapher and was a Christian. Lin disappeared within days of the February 28 Incident in Taiwan in 1947; he is generally believed to have been killed as a part of Chinese Nationalist Party's crackdown after the island-wide civilian uprising. Lin's second son, Lin Tsung-yi, was an academic and educator in psychiatry.
