North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Postdoctoral Fellow from Italy in the field of Immunology. His work has focused specifically on the development of new, more efficient methods of drug delivery, characterization of cell adhesion in T cells, and most recently investigation of the characteristics of FC Receptor Like 5 and its behavior in relation to B cells and B cell lymphoma. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Immunology, including 2 peer-reviewed journal articles and 2 conference abstracts. His publications had been cited at least 91 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. As stated by one independent recommender, “Nearly a quarter of all deaths are directly due to cancer, and well over a million new cases of the disease will be diagnosed in 2013. [Client] has made a critical contribution to this novel area of cancer research. This is an enormous step forward for the greater field and is one of the reasons his article was favorably reviewed and published.” 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 6 months and 9 days.
