In the sciences, publication and citation counts are good estimators of a scientist's rate of productivity and the influence of what is produced. [Client’s] counts indeed indicate a very productive career, with twenty papers published and over one hundred citations of those publications. Such a high citation count reveals that her work has not only been prodigious but also of uncommonly high quality and importance; her citation count essentially shows that she has been able to exert an influence on the work of others. Such a display is not only beneficial to [Client]. It is also beneficial to the rest of us working in the sciences because we know we can count on her to deliver intriguing and valid results capable of utilization in our own projects.” This EB1-A Alien of Extraordinary Ability petition received approval in just 1 month, 2 days- 6 days after upgrading her case to Premium Processing.
