Case Summary:
In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a Postdoctoral Fellow from India in the field of Chemical Engineering. He had conducted his research in the highly specialized areas of biomedical applications such as the development of next-generation biosensors for diagnosis and monitoring of disease, and the use of Neutron Reflectivity to characterize polymeric thin films and the interface of drugs and their binding materials. His work had resulted in 10 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 98 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work. He had also reviewed 39 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals. His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] essentially has discovered a tremendous new development in preventing heart disease in those who suffer from diabetes. Inhibiting renin, according to his work, appears to be a powerful factor in preventing iAng II from being fabricated and causing increased hypertension. Equipped with [Client’s] findings, the field has a much stronger handle on where to direct our attention in dealing with this widespread and debilitating condition.” 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 Chemical Engineering, 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 3 months and 4 days.
