Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Postdoctoral Fellow from China in the field of Neuroscience.  Her specialized research has focused on identifying the compounds in mulberry, pineapple, Broussonetia papyrifea, and the tea plant that afford potent neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects. Her work had resulted in 12 peer-reviewed scientific articles, 2 book chapters, and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that her case was filed, her publications had been cited at least 289 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of her work.  She had also reviewed 14 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  Her superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “I believe [client’s] project regarding the neuroprotective effects of a pro-drug of the green tea polyphenol in preventing Parkinson's disease is a prime example of the kind of groundbreaking work that she perpetually produces.” 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 Neuroscience, 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 20 days.
