Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Postdoctoral Research Associate from China in the field of Physical Chemistry.  He had conducted his research in the highly specialized area of nanotechnology, surface science, and catalysis. His work had resulted in 28 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 266 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 37 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “Renewable energy research is not limited to chemists. In fact, it has uses in physics and materials science as well. Production of clean energy is of the utmost importance to the nation as more and more non-renewable energy is used, but not replaced, every single day. With the US (and other countries) embracing the concept of better environmental health, [Client] and his research will continue to be of top priority.” 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 Physical Chemistry, 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 2 months and 11 days.
