Case Summary:

For this EB-1A Alien of Extraordinary Ability case, we had the privilege to work with a Postdoctoral Research Associate, who has made substantial contributions and garnered international acclaim in the field of Medicinal Chemistry. Our client specializes in studying the structural characterization of proteins, particularly intrinsically disordered proteins. Our client’s research addresses the multifaceted complexities of proteins and their role in vital biological processes, including tumor suppression and regression. Overall, his extraordinary multidisciplinary background in pharmaceutical sciences, traditional Chinese medicine, organic chemistry, and medicinal chemistry has contributed to the originality of his work and has pioneered the development of cutting-edge therapies and novel applications for molecular protein targeting. His work has culminated in the publication of one book chapter and 13 peer-reviewed scientific manuscripts that were published in the top journals of his field. At the time of filing his case, his publications had been cited 238 times by researchers worldwide, demonstrating the global scientific community’s heavy reliance upon his work. Furthermore, he has presented his work at numerous national and international conferences. The international interest of his work was validated by an independent recommender, who stated, “Only a handful of scientists can even hope to achieve major new findings in the course of their career. [Client] has improved our knowledge base of protein complexes vital to the fight against cancer and other diseases, and he has done this to an extent that I do not believe anyone else in the field could presently match. He is certainly one of the most advanced minds working in this area, and the continued improvement of the field is heavily dependent upon his continued research.”Additionally, our client has been invited to judge the work of his colleagues and other forerunners in his field at a conference hosted by the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists, and he has reviewed over 30 manuscripts for 5 prestigious, highly distinguished, internationally circulated journals. By providing evidence regarding the national and international acclaim for our client’s research, we were able to prove that he has risen to the very top of his field.
