In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was an assistant project scientist from China in the field of regenerative medicine. Our client’s specialized research has focused on the development of novel methods for efficiently reprogramming and differentiating stem cells and other cells for therapeutic applications, as well as the identification of fullerene derivatives for use in the treatment of viral infections and other diseases. Her work had resulted in 10 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 1 invited review article, 3 additional papers, and 4 presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that her case was filed, her publications had been cited at least 132 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of her work. She has also served as a manuscript reviewer for at least 7 distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. Her superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] is a particularly skilled and meticulous researcher working to ameliorate some of the largest health problems plaguing patients in the United States and worldwide. I do not hesitate to call her an exceptional expert in the field, as she has not only developed a diverse array of skills, but has also – objectively – shown her worth and reputation in the international arena.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that she sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of regenerative medicine, and that her continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, her case was approved in 24 days.
