Case Summary:
The client in this case was a postdoctoral research associate from India in the field of chemistry. His work had primarily focused on several branches of chemistry, biocatalysis, immunotherapeutics, and pharmacokinetic evolution. His work had resulted in at least 24 peer-reviewed scientific articles. At the time that his case was filed, his publications had accumulated at least 244 citations, clearly demonstrating that he had influenced his field and garnered international acclaim. In addition, he had reviewed 16 papers for 5 journals related to the field of chemistry. Of his accomplishments, one of his independent recommenders remarked, “Due to his vast scientific and academic achievements, [client] has obtained international acclaim from numerous leading researchers around the world. […] He was the first to synthesize a potent analogue of […], a thiolactone antibiotic.” 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 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 7 months.
