Success Stories: EB-1A Approved for Postdoctoral Fellow in Texas in the Field of Computational Biophysics
Client’s Testimonial:
Thank you very much for the excellent job done with my application. I will continue to recommend your services to my contacts, as I already have been.
On January 15, 2015, We Received Another EB1-A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) Approval for a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Field of Computational Biophysics (Approval Notice)
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Fellow
Country of Origin: India
Service Center: Texas Service Center (TSC)
Country of Residence at the Time of Filing: Maryland
Approval Notice Date: January 15th, 2015
Processing Time: 2 Months, 10 Days (Including RFE Response Time; Premium Processing Requested)
Our client in this case was a computational biophysicist from India who had made numerous findings in the area of novel methods for computational modeling of biological molecules in atomic detail and their application to important scientific problems directly related to human diseases. His work had resulted in 18 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 320 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 11 manuscripts for 9 distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. An independent recommender remarked upon his superior expertise: “[Client] is one of the top academics in the fields of Computational Biophysics and Chemistry. His work has reached a wide-ranging audience and is being used by thousands of scientists worldwide…His work has already had a huge impact on the research of carbohydrates, which are a major part of human biological processes and drug design.” 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 Computational Biophysics, 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 two months and ten days.
