Client’s Testimonial:
“Thank you so much for the message and all the hard work that led to the approval. I greatly appreciate all your help.”
On December 3rd, 2025, we received another EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval for a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Field of Biochemistry (Approval Notice).
General Field: Biochemistry
Position at the Time of Case Filing: Postdoctoral Scholar
Country of Origin: Thailand
State of Residence at the Time of Filing: California
Approval Notice Date: December 3rd, 2025
Processing Time: 1 year, 10 months, 3 days
Case Summary:
This NIW approval recognizes the work of a biochemistry researcher from Thailand who, at the time of filing, was a postdoctoral scholar in California. The petition was approved following 1 year, 10 months, and 3 days of processing. When she approached NAILG, she had already developed a clear research trajectory focused on improving biocatalysis systems to support green and sustainable chemical production. NAILG identified that her work aligned directly with national priorities in sustainable chemistry and environmentally responsible manufacturing.
Her proposed endeavor centers on establishing effective and versatile biocatalysis systems that can support the greener production of drug intermediates, nutrients, and food additives. These technologies offer pathways to reduce chemical waste, lower environmental impact, and enable cost-efficient manufacturing processes. This work holds relevance across pharmaceuticals, food technology, and industrial chemistry. As one expert noted, “Her distinctive array of skills sets her apart from her peers, firmly solidifying [Client]’s standing at the forefront of the biochemistry field.” Her contributions support broader U.S. goals in clean technology and sustainable production methods.
A key strength of the petition was her record of peer-reviewed research. She has authored 9 journal articles, including 5 first-authored papers, with her publications receiving 87 citations. NAILG presented this publication record as evidence of consistent contributions to biochemistry and as confirmation that independent researchers rely on her findings.
In addition to her publications, she has completed at least 3 peer reviews, demonstrating that journal editors consider her qualified to evaluate the work of others in her specialty. Her research has also been supported by competitive funding from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, the Japan Science and Technology Agency, and the Japan Agency for Medical Research and Development. These funding sources were highlighted by NAILG as indicators that established scientific organizations view her research as valuable and aligned with long-term scientific and industrial needs.
By clearly outlining the scientific merit, national relevance, and her ability to advance the proposed endeavor, NAILG showed that she satisfied the Dhanasar criteria for NIW classification. The approval confirms that her work is considered beneficial to the national interest and allows her to continue developing biocatalysis systems that support sustainable chemistry and more environmentally responsible industrial practices in the United States.
