Case Summary:

Our client in this case was a hematologist from India who had made numerous findings in the area of the mechanisms behind stem cell proliferation and mobilization.  Her work had resulted in 27 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 334 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 21 manuscripts for 7 distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. An independent recommender remarked upon her superior expertise: “[Client’s] results indicate a novel way of increasing the efficacy of treatment for numerous diseases, offering improvements to the healthcare industry and better hope for patients suffering from such hematologic diseases.” 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 Hematology, 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 23 days.
