Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Postdoctoral Researcher from China in the field of neuroscience.  He had conducted his research in the highly specialized areas of neurodegenerative conditions. His work had resulted in 10 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 136 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 24 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “Through my experience with his research, I consider [Client] to be an exceptionally talented scientist who brings a unique combination of knowledge, skills, and creativity to the fields of neuroscience and cell biology. In addition, [Client] has produced publications that have been referenced across the globe, a mark of the reach of his expertise.” 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 neuroscience, 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 and 10 days.
