North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Research Assistant and Adjunct Professor in New Jersey in the field of Physics. He has made substantial contributions to the field of biophysics with an emphasis on the study of photosynthesis through computational methods. His work has focused specifically on utilizing novel computational approaches and simulations to explore matters of the water splitting reaction as driven by solar energy. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Physics, including 3 peer-reviewed journal articlesand numerous conference papers and presentations. His publications had been cited at least 25 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 is also active in the scientific community as a peer reviewer for a highly acclaimed journal. As stated by one independent recommender, “His work is completed with an eye towards future implementation, and his models are already utilized in the field. His research on photosynthesis is leading the effort to improve designs of green energy technology, especially solar panels that use photosynthesis-like processes to produce electricity. Our country needs to invest in the work of scientists with a demonstrated ability to provide much needed advances in the basic sciences used to develop clean energy alternatives. [Client] is one such example, and for this reason I am certain that his continued employment will be of great value to his peers, his colleagues, and this country.” 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 8 months and 13 days.
