In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a postdoctoral researcher from China in the field of mechanical engineering. His specialized research has focused on increasing our understanding of the thermophysical properties of various materials in order to improve their thermal performance in practical applications. His work had resulted in 13 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 192 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 30 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender,“All these elements demonstrate that [client] has a unique expertise in the field of heat transfer analysis and thermal characterization where he is a leader with many accomplishments.” 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 mechanical engineering, 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 5 months and 26 days.
