Case Summary:

For this EB-1A Alien of Extraordinary Ability case, we had the privilege of working with a Postdoctoral Research Scholar, who has made substantial contributions and garnered international acclaim in the field of Organic Chemistry. Our client specializes in organic synthesis and catalysis. He has pioneered the discovery of novel catalytic protocols for the synthesis of important chemical intermediates, which are necessary for the production of pharmaceutical drugs and energy storage materials. His research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing concerns within the pharmaceutical industry, primarily the search for renewable energy sources and the recycling of rare chemical resources—often touted as the Holy Grail of organic catalysis. The major significance of his work was endorsed by an independent recommender, who stated, “The principle of this work involves the idea that self-supported catalysts can be prepared by incorporating catalytic sites as pendants on a linear organic polymer. [Client] has demonstrated that self-supported catalysts can be prepared by three strategies which do not rely on support materials. This work gains ground for the future of catalysis chemistry, in that the possibility of recoverable and recyclable catalysts are possible, which is currently a fundamental topic within the field and the pharmaceutical industry.”The originality of his work has culminated in 2 patents, 7 peer-reviewed scientific manuscripts that were published in the top journals of his field, and the publication of a book chapter. At the time of filing his case, his publications had been cited 302 times by researchers worldwide, demonstrating the global scientific community’s heavy reliance upon his work. Furthermore, his work has been presented and discussed at internationally renowned conferences. Additionally, our client has been invited to judge the work of his colleagues and other forerunners in his field, and he has served as a manuscript reviewer for 7 highly distinguished, internationally circulated journals related to the field of Organic Chemistry. In total, he has reviewed over 30 manuscripts thus far. In demonstrating the extraordinary ability of our client and international acclaim for his research, we were able to prove that he has risen to the very top of his field of endeavor. With the extensive and thorough documentation that we provided, we were met with success when his EB-1A petition was expeditiously approved in 1 month and 13 days.
