This time we were given the opportunity to work with an engineer specializing in body sensor networks. We submitted extensive documentation proving the high significance of her contributions to her field, including her 3 conference publications, patent, and several other conference presentations - a body of work that had received 16 citations by the time we filed her case. The great majority of these citations are from independent researchers distributed worldwide, demonstrating the wide reliance upon and recognition of our client’s work in her field. An independent recommender affirmed the importance of her work: “[Client’s] studies have wide implications for the medical industry and address such pressing issues as integrating advanced wireless technology into monitoring so that medical staff can remotely monitor patients and analyze continuous data on any number of physical parameters. […]Such remote monitoring capability will improve patient outcome, reduce the cost of hospital visits, and enables healthcare professionals to improve disease management, which in turn reduces the number of complications and further hospitalizations.” We successfully demonstrated that our client’s continued employment in the field would benefit the people of the United States as a whole as well as her fellow researchers, and argued that she would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. Her NIW petition was approved in 4 months and 24 days.
