In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Postdoctoral Research Associate from China in the field of Material Science. His specialized research has focused on innovative energy storage solutions in the way of improved lithium-ion battery (LIB) design. His work had resulted in 24 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 203 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 36 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] developed three different solutions to problems in silicon-carbon nanofiber electrodes as they relate to silicon protection, solid state electrolyte (SEI) stability, and battery charge and discharge times. Without going into the details, I must say that [client’s] team has solved long-standing, most challenging problems associated with high capacity anode materials.” 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 Material Science, 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 22 days.
