Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Postdoctoral Research Associate from India in the field of Materials Science.  She had conducted her research in the highly specialized area of the development of novel graphene materials. Her work had resulted in 23 peer-reviewed scientific articles and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that her case was filed, her publications had been cited at least 344 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 19 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  Her superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] is an authority figure in her own right, having published meaningful and groundbreaking research that is working to make biosensors better engineered, more affordable, and more applicable for clinical use and in home, personal use, especially for diabetics who need to routinely check glucose levels on a daily basis.” 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 Materials Science, 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 4 months and 25 days.
