Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the pleasure of working with was a Postdoctoral Research Fellowfrom China in the field of Cell Biology. Her specialized research has focused on cancer research, longevity, and yeast genetics. Her work had resulted in 9 peer-reviewed scientific articles and numerous presentations at national and international conferences. At the time that her case was filed, her publications had been cited at least 349 times by researchers around the world, serving as apparent and objective evidence of her major influence and impact on the field of endeavor, in addition to her sustained international acclaim. She had also reviewed 22 manuscripts for at least 7 distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. Her superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client]’s work is of paramount importance to US research and pharmaceutical industry, allowing for continued research and development in fields of fundamental importance to the maintenance of our current technological and scientific leads in biology and healthcare. In addition, [client]’s advanced methodologies are applicable across a broad cross-section of studies presently underway, thereby providing opportunities for standard refinements and the basis for others to pursue work based upon her findings.” 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 Cell Biology, 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 just 26 days.
