In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Research Fellow from China in the field of Biology. He had conducted his research in the highly specialized areas of cancer biology, translational medicine and anticancer drugs. His work had resulted in 12 peer-reviewed scientific articles; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 220 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 15 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “The studies showing these effects in human tumor cell lines and patient tumor samples from clinical trials are noteworthy both for their pioneering findings and for the careful, thoughtful manner in which these studies were conducted. [Client]’s work in this area helps expand our fundamental understanding of the molecular mechanisms that lie at the core of certain malignancies.” 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 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 4 months and 24 days.
