Case Summary:

The client that North America Immigration Law GroupWeGreened.com had the opportunity to work in this case was a Postdoctoral Associate from Taiwan.  His work had focused specifically on nanocrystals. We successfully demonstrated that his continued employment in the field 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 12 peer-reviewed journal articles, 2 patents, and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 57 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.  The inherit merit of his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “By using single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (smFRET) in combination with vesicle trapping, [Client] was able to quantify weak and dynamic interactions within the protein. He was then able to label and monitor the interaction dynamics in real time.  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 9 months and 18 days.
