Case Summary:
The North America Immigration Law Group had been hired by a Chinese research associate to assist her in filing a National Interest Waiver (NIW) petition on her behalf. Our background check found that she was working to identify genes and proteins that protect against myocardial infarction. We concluded that she has a likely chance to secure approval, and designed her petition with these details:
- Our client has a Ph.D. in the clinical integration of Chinese and Western medicine, proving she has an advanced degree.
- Our client is well-published, with 28 peer-reviewed journal articles (8 of them firstauthored) and 1 patent application. In addition, her work has been published in no less than 17 prestigious journals.
- Her work is also extremely influential, with a total of 2594 citations at the time of filing, with at least 7 of her papers being among the most cited within their year of publication.
- Her research has clear national importance, as her characterization of cardioprotective genes and proteins and study of allograft vasculopathy progression are vital for U.S. myocardial infarction therapeutics and the success of heart transplants, meaning that her research is especially valuable to enhancing American public health and wellbeing, particularly for patients undergoing heart transplantation.
- She has also received funding from the Leducq Foundation and the Canadian Institute of Health Research (CIHR), lending further credence to the importance of her work.
- We found that she had also received 4 different letters of recommendation from experts, one of whom said:
“{Client}’s exceptional research accomplishments and significant contributions to the field of biomedical science make her an outstanding addition to the United States. I am confident that {Client} will continue to make substantial contributions to the biomedical science field and have a profound impact on improving patient outcomes and advancing medical treatments nationwide.”
With the work of our dedicated team, and assistance from the premium processing service offered by the USCIS, we managed to secure her NIW approval in only 7 days. We thank her for trusting our firm and wish her continued success in her research.
