At North America Immigration Law Group- WeGreened.com, we recently received an NIW approval fora Postdoctoral Research Associate in New York in the field of Analytical Chemistry. His work has focused specifically on surface & colloidal chemistry, immunoassay analysis, membrane protein electrophoresis separation, self-assembly materials, and biosensor design. As a Postdoctoral Researcher, he has built a Magnetic Tweezers instrument and applied it in single polymer growth, preformed super resolution center position tracking and Matlab programming, and investigated SI-ROMP at the single molecule level. We successfully demonstrated that his continued employment in Analytical Chemistry would benefit those in his field, as well as the citizens of the United States at large. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to his field, including 4 peer-reviewed journal articles (one of them first-authored) and numerous conference papers and presentations. His publications had been cited at least 39 times at the time we filed the case by leading and independent researchers around the world, many of whom are from prestigious national and international institutions. The influence of his work was confirmed in the following quote from a recommender, “[Client]’s research has been quite valuable, as membrane proteins are essential to an organism's health and to the function of most medicines. […] Because of [his] progress, scientists can now control and calculate protein focusing positions.The method allows researchers to separate and concentrate proteins simultaneously. [Client]'s research has been a great aid to scientist in the fields of analytical chemistry and transmembrane proteomics.” 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. His NIW petition was approved in 5 months and 10 days.
