In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Postdoctoral Scholar from China in the field of Bioinformatics. He had conducted his research in the highly specialized areas focusing on the development of tools and algorithms to harness big data, especially publically available big data in life science. His work had resulted in 19 peer-reviewed scientific articles and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 354 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 16 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals, and had reviewed an additional 20 manuscripts for 11 conferences. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client’s] continued research in this area, as highlighted by his previous research, will continue to advance the scientific communities understanding of this very complicated field, through the utilization of new methods for evaluation and such as his development of a network for polypharmacology.” 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 Bioinformatics, 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 just 10 days.
