To demonstrate his influence, the petition highlighted his strong academic record, including:
- Documented in 5 peer-reviewed journal articles (2 first-authored), 3 peer-reviewed conference articles, and 1 technical report
- 131 citations across leading engineering journals, including one article in the top 10 percent most-cited for its publication year
- Completed at least 2 invited manuscript reviews for a leading journal in neural networks and computational methods
Demonstrating Substantial Merit & National Importance
We showed that these algorithms directly enhance U.S. strategic priorities by improving remote surveillance, optimizing network reliability, and supporting energy-efficient industrial applications, thereby reducing downtime risks and bolstering infrastructure performance for critical sectors.
Well Positioned to Advance the Proposed Endeavor
His rigorous academic training in computational electromagnetics and machine learning, coupled with his research appointment at a major U.S. institute, established a strong foundation for continued innovation. Independent advisory letters confirmed his capacity to translate complex simulations into practical solutions that will drive future breakthroughs in telecommunication and sensing technologies.
Approval and Outcome
The petition was filed on January 10, 2025, with direct premium processing. Following a targeted RFE response submitted on March 13, 2025, the petition was approved on July 31, 2025. The total processing time was 6 months and 21 days, underscoring the national interest in retaining his exceptional talents in computational electromagnetics. NAILG is proud to have guided this client through a smooth NIW process and looks forward to his continued contributions to U.S. science and technology.
