In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Postdoctoral Associate from China in the field of Biophysics. His specialized research has focused on the computational modeling and simulation of biological molecules, specifically lipids and membrane proteins. His work had resulted in 9 peer-reviewed scientific articles (4 of them first-authored) and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 104 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 11 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] researched the transduction of mechanical force in […] protein...This information is significant because it proves that to gain efficient […] protein-mediated synaptic responses-which are critical to brain function-the ligand-binding domain and the ion channel need to be mechanically connected and grouped together.” 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 Biophysics, 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 4 months and 13 days.
