Case Summary:

The client in this case was a biomedical researcher in the field of cancer research. His research had primarily focused on the study of the pathogenesis and treatment of leukemia and other cancers. His work had resulted in at least 13 peer-reviewed scientific articles, including a publication in the journal Science. His publications had garnered at least 570 citations at the time his case was filed, clearly demonstrating that he had influenced his field and garnered international acclaim. In addition, our client had reviewed at least 11 papers for 6 journals related to the area of cancer research. Of his accomplishments, one of his independent recommenders remarked, “It is my expectation that [client] will continue to produce important cancer research findings with substantial translational research relevance. His endeavors will be of ongoing and sustained practical benefit to persons suffering from cancer both here in the United States and worldwide. He has an impressive number of citations for such a young scholar, and his work is recognized at the highest levels of our field.” 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 cancer research, 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 just 3 days after upgrading to Premium Processing Service.
