Case Summary:

North American Immigration Law Group’s client in this case was a postdoctoral scholar who was working on the development of nanoscaled materials for biomedical applications. Over the course of his career thus far, he had produced 13 peer-reviewed scientific articles in distinguished and high-impact journals, 2 book chapters, and 1 monograph, as well as numerous conference papers and presentations. His body of work had received 327 citations from independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that his findings are widely recognized and relied upon in his field. The importance of his work was certified by an independent recommender: “[Client] has provided new models and methodologies for determining toxicity levels of nanoparticles, making him one of the top researchers in this area. Moreover, he has also notably improved medical imaging technology through the application of novel nanoparticles, showcasing his ability to enhance these materials even as he studies them to determine the safety of their widespread use.” 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 four months and twenty-one days.
