Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Research Associate from China in the field of Molecular Biology.  He had conducted his research in the highly specialized topic of cell cycle and metabolic control. His work had resulted in 12 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 598 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 17 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “Since the United States has an exceedingly high demand for scientists with such extraordinary proficiencies to improve health care for Americans, I strongly support the continuation of [Client]’s innovative research.” 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 1 month and 3 days.
