Case Summary:

A bioinformatics scientist II contacted our law firm to help him establish his significant contributions to the U.S. by filing for an EB-1B (Outstanding Professors and Researchers) visa category. We presented his unique executive background and unprecedented experience necessary to his current and future work at the USCIS.

Upon reviewing his credentials, we found that our client has completed his:

• Ph.D. in Bioengineering and has an unparalleled documented record of authorship in his field of endeavor.
• His work has been published in some of the most prestigious, high-impact journals resulting in 13 peer-reviewed journal articles (4 of them first- or co-first-authored) and 4 abstracts (2 of them first-authored).
• Moreover, he has already conducted at least 20 journal reviews to date, and his work has been cited by other scholars in numerous published articles as well. According to Google Scholar, his work has been cited 2,132 times.

Furthermore, he has made substantial contributions to the field of computational biology. Specifically, his specialized research has focused on cancer cell-free DNA (cfDNA) epigenetics and single-cell genomics. His research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues in understanding host-pathogen interactions and the early detection of cancer.

His strong background in computational research and molecular assay development has allowed his research to be particularly original, with applications such as controlling the pathogenesis of bacteria. He is particularly well-known for his insights into the mechanisms behind cellular aging across organs.

His case was further supported by four recommendation letters that he obtained from his fellow experts in the field, corroborating how his work has helped set the course for much subsequent research in this area. Therefore, one of the recommenders stated:

“[Client’s] projects hold significance for the United States, particularly in advancing healthcare and disease management. Through his pioneering work in single-cell transcriptomic analysis and understanding of parasite reproduction and aging processes, [client] offers valuable insights that can inform the development of strategies to combat infectious diseases prevalent in the country.”

The totality of this evidence, thus shows that our client has been internationally recognized and fully qualified as an outstanding researcher in the field of geosciences.

• He has even received funding from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund (BWF), the Chan-Zuckerberg (CZ) Biohub, and the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This funding supports projects that further healthcare and wellness through cutting-edge scientific research.

Therefore, our client’s research enhances the quality of healthcare research by advancing the methodology for generating and analyzing single-cell transcriptomic data, which is important for developing effective detection assays and treatments.

Our team’s efforts successfully paid off in conveying to the USCIS that our client’s essential experience in the field of computational biology has afforded him vast knowledge and formidable skills, which are a significant asset to any research setting and thus set him apart as a vital researcher in his field of expertise today. We would like to congratulate him on securing his EB1B case approval, which was adjudicated in only 7 days instead of 9-12 months (Thanks to Premium Processing). We wish him to receive his green card as soon as possible.
