In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was an Orthodontist from India in the field of Molecular Biology. His specialized research has focused on the molecular basis of oral and skin cancer initiation and progression. His work had resulted in 10 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 1 book chapter, and 9 presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 153 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. He had also reviewed 5 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] has done important work in the area of non-melanoma skin cancers, such as basal cell carcinoma. One of the most important risk factors for such cancers, which affect more than one million patients each year in the United States, is exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation. [Client’s] work has uniquely identified an important relationship between ultraviolet B radiation (UVB) and protein kinase D (PKD).” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of Molecular Biology, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 5 months and 17 days.
