Case Summary:

North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Postdoctoral Research Associate from South Korea in the field of Biophysics and Neuroscience. She has made substantial contributions to the fields of Biophysics and Neuroscience, as well as their respective subfields, through elucidation of hitherto unknown molecular mechanisms and biological processes critical to combat neurodegenerative diseases and brain disorders, as well as pioneering investigational methodologies. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving her highly significant contributions to Biophysics and Neuroscience, including 3 peer-reviewed journal articles and a conference presentation. Her publications had been cited at least 43 times at the time we filed the case; nearly all of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field. As stated by one independent recommender, “I have taken notice of the research of [client] and believe it to be among the most relevant and important work in the field of biophysics today. Her focus on mechanisms of membrane fusion is of critical importance to this country as a whole, as it supports the understanding of neurodegenerative diseases that are widespread, such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s.”Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. Her NIW petition was approved in 4 months and 12 days.
