Case Summary:
Another exceptional client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the pleasure of working with was a postdoctoral associate from Taiwan working in the field of neuro-oncology. His work had focused specifically on the mechanisms of glioma development and the discovery of therapeutic drugs for medulloblastoma. We at North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would not only benefit those in his field, but the citizens of the United States at large. To achieve success in this case, we submitted extensive documentation proving our client’s highly significant contributions to the field of neuro-oncology, including at least 7 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 88 times at the time of case filing. Of his accomplishments, one of the independent recommenders remarked: “In [client’s] publication that appeared in the [journal], he described several very important observations in mouse and human gliomas, which he discovered were maintained by over-expression of PDGFRA. While trying to dissect the molecular signaling pathways activated by the receptor, [client] found that one of the downstream molecules, SHP-2, plays an essential role in maintaining tumor growth. He then reconfirmed this observation in human glioma patient specimens. This points to a potential therapeutic target to which gliomas may be more sensitive. Without a question, [client’s] work broadens our understanding o PDGFRa signaling in the malignant gliomas and potentially will contribute to finding a better treatment option for these patients.” Through extensive documentation, we at North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com successfully argued that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW application was approved in 3 ½ months.
