In this case we were offered the opportunity to work with a biochemist from India whose highly specialized work focused on the study of ubiquitin and related mechanisms. He had produced 7 peer-reviewed journal articles and given numerous presentations at national and international conferences; altogether our client’s work had received no fewer than 159 citations from independent and leading researchers at prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, showing its major significance within his field. He had also reviewed 12 manuscripts for 8 prominent, internationally-circulated journals. An independent recommender endorsed our client’s superior level of expertise: “This development has profound implications, creating a new paradigm of understanding in which it is possible for two different El enzymes to activate a member of the ubiquitin family. […] This work represents a major step forward for the analysis and modification of cellular processes, which improves medical treatments, improving the productivity, quality of life, and life expectancy in this country. [Client’s] careful study has revealed these developments through his innovative use of gene characterization and cellular investigation.” 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 Biochemistry, 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 six months and eighteen days.
