Case Summary:

Another exceptional client that Chen Immigration Law Associates had the pleasure of working with is a computer scientist from Taiwan with a specialization in machine learning and neuroscience, specifically brain imaging, artificial intelligence, cognitive modeling, human-computer interaction, speech recognition, intelligent tutoring systems, and brain-computer interface systems. This client wished to continue his research dedicated to computational neurolinguistics and machine learning. These are matters of critical importance to our nation’s technological, medical, and educational industries and the related sectors of the economy. We at Chen Immigration Law Associates 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 computer science, including 15 peer-reviewed scientific articles published in leading journals, which garnered hundreds of citations by international scientists and researchers. This is an exemplary record compared to that of his peers in the field of computer science. Of his accomplishments, one of the independent recommenders remarked: “With proven expertise in machine learning, cognitive modeling, brain imaging, artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, brain-computer interface, and speech recognition, Dr. X is the ideal candidate to further intelligent tutoring systems. His research has greatly advanced efforts to thoroughly understand student competencies on an individual basis, making it easier to tailor curriculums for the best possible outcome for each student.” Through extensive documentation, we at Chen Immigration Law Associates successfully argued that our client will serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW application was approved in 1 month.
