Client’s Testimonial:
I am so glad to hear the great news! Thank you guys for your awesome work in the past year, I really appreciate your endless efforts put in my case!
On October 7, 2015, We Received Another EB1-A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) Approval for a Research Scientist in the Field of Biochemistry (Approval Notice)
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Research Scientist
Country of Origin: China
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: New York
Approval Notice Date: October 7, 2015
Processing Time: 9 Days (Premium Processing Requested)
In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a research scientist from China in the field of biochemistry. Our client’s specialized research has focused on the structure-function relationship of Cytochrome P450s and their application in drug metabolism prediction and rational drug design, engineering novel or refined proteins for environmental biodegradation, discovery of functional proteins for pathogenic and oral spirochetes, and applications of radiation in mutation breeding for industrial microbes and molecular mechanisms for radiation injury and protection. His work had resulted in 15 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 169 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 22 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “With such important applications of his studies and a thoroughly proven history of achieving success in his research endeavors, I fully endorse [client] as a leader in the field of biochemistry. His research will continue to bring many significant and beneficial discoveries to the global community of scientists and to the American people, making it imperative that his research be allowed to continue within the United States' borders.” 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 9 days.
