Case Summary:
In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Post-Doctoral Fellow from India in the field of Neuroscience. He had conducted his research in the highly specialized area of the design and verification of distinct animal models to assist in the comprehension of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, a condition that results from pathological presence of a blood clot (thrombus) in the sinuses of brain, and distal hereditary motor neuropathy. His work had resulted in 9 peer-reviewed scientific articles and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 64 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client]’s track record of success and his acceptance at distinguished medical centers across the nation confirm what I already believe to be true: that he has every intention of pursuing his research well into the future, and that without this rigorous pursuit improvements in neurological care will be significantly slowed.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of Neuroscience, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 27 days.
