Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a postdoctoral researcher from China in the field of materials science. Our client’s specialized research has focused on vertically aligned nanocomposite thin films and designing low cost and high performance bi-layer cathode for fuel cells. His work had resulted in 21 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 162 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 24 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] has produced research of enormous value to the scientific, technological, and global communities. His efforts have been vital to the advancement of knowledge in the field, and the totality of his achievements justify my opinion that he is at the top of his field.” 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 materials 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 19 days.
