Case Summary:

An MS in Biotechnology graduate student from Poland chose our law firm to help her in preparing an EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on her behalf. When she hired the North America Immigration Law Group, we took a look at her credentials, and after considering her record of thriving research in the field of biomedical science that significantly furthers U.S. interests, we were certain that she offers contributions of such value that, on balance, they would benefit the United States.

We, therefore, outlined her proposed endeavor of creating novel in vivo models to study cancer development, elucidate the functions of proteins, and uncover the roles of transcriptomic machinery to increase the understanding of cell cycle proteins critical for cancer growth and directly address critical issues related to improving the treatment of cancer.

Also, her research projects have major funding sources, including the Foundation for Polish Science, European Union Regional Development Fund, National Institutes of Health, and Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. This funding serves as clear evidence of the merit of her work in increasing the efficacy of novel cancer immunotherapies.

Not only did we discover her intended research work but we also discussed her incredible publishing records, consisting of 5 peer-reviewed journal articles published in no fewer than 2 highly ranked peer-reviewed journals. Her work gathered 165 citations from many of her peers and colleagues in the field.

The outstanding rates at which her papers have been cited indicate that others in her discipline have relied on her results to an exceptional degree. Four other noted experts confirm the importance of our client’s background and experience in more detail by signing her letters of support. Here, we are adding one of the excerpts taken out from the submitted recommendation letters:

“[Client] has already proven herself to be an invaluable asset within the American research community, and all reasonable efforts must be made to retain this talented biomedical scientist.”

This was inevitable for her to receive the NIW approval, therefore, we are extremely happy that our client was able to secure the national interest waiver, we wish her the very best in all her future endeavors.
