In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a research associate staff from China in the field of immunology. [Client’s] specialized research has focused on the investigation and development of gene and specific cell therapies for particular diseases, initially focusing on the detection and treatment of diseases devastating to livestock and fish and later expanding his expertise to the study of disease in humans, including multiple sclerosis. His work had resulted in 33 peer-reviewed journal articles in English and Chinese (9 first-authored and 2 corresponding author) and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 187 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 16 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “I expect that [client] will continue to produce work of significance to the biomedical realm, and that work has great worth to the United States, where insights provided by researchers like [client] help us battle our greatest health problems, such as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease. Unraveling the molecular underpinnings of disease is of profound value, and in that regard, and for all the other reasons I have listed, [client] should be seen as a considerable asset to the United States.” 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 immunology, 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 4 months and 11 days.
