North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Indiana in the field of Nanoscience. His work has focused specifically on developing high performance nanoelectronics using materials like graphene, carbon nanotubes and organic semiconductors. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Nanoscience, including 11 peer-reviewed journal articles and at least 30 conference presentations and posters. His publications had been cited at least 154 times at the time we filed the case; nearly all of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field. He also contributed to his field by performing peer review work for multiple scholarly journals. As stated by one independent recommender, “Without his work, we would not be able to invent nanomaterial based optoelectronic devices with high performance, such as in solar cells. In 2012 the United States saw a 35 percent increase in solar power implementation, so it is clear that the advancement of the technology used to gather it is a strong national concern. [Client] is a researcher who demonstrated he is needed for this purpose.” Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW petition was approved in 4 months and 17 days.
