In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a senior research fellow from India in the field of microbiology. [Client's] specialized research has focused on the intersection between microbiology and immunology, with a special interest in the control and prevention of infectious diseases. Her previous work in USA had resulted in 15 peer-reviewed scientific articles and 16 presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that her case was filed, her publications had been cited at least 300 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of her work. She had also reviewed 14 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. Her superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender,“[Client's] publication record clearly sets her apart within her field, as she has made significant recent breakthroughs in the ability of the microbiology/immunology community as a whole to develop vaccines. This is attested to by her impressive citation record and numerous invited conference presentations at international venues.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that she sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of microbiology, and that her continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, her case was approved in 26 days.
