Case Summary:
The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Research Assistant from China. His work has focused specifically on bridging the gap between computational research in the medical field and actual clinical practice. We successfully demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would benefit those in his field, as well as the citizens of the United States at large. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to his field, including 2 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. His publications had been cited at least 9 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. The importance of his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client] created a bio-registration database that facilitates bioinformatics analysis and information retrieval for high-throughput screening, which is critical for cancer drug discovery.” 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 6 months and 27 days.
