Raised in Tribute:
$875.00Dr. Hua-Ting Chieh was born in China (3/23/29) and came to the United States to study electrical engineering. He received his Ph.D in Electrical Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania and immigrated his young family from Taiwan to the United States shortly after. His teaching career spanned many decades at different universities such as Howard University where he became a tenured professor. Upon retirement, he discovered the joy of swimming and could be found at the pool twice a day. When he was no longer able to swim routinely due to Parkinson's, he was located to an retirement village where he passed away on March 4, 2018.
He will be missed by his wife, adult children, grandchildren, friends and colleagues.
We hope your donation in Dr. Chieh's memory will help the Michael J Fox Foundation find a cure.

The Foundation is the world's largest nonprofit funder of Parkinson's research, with more than $800 million in high-impact research funded to date.
