Case Summary:

Our client is a research fellow who proposed to continue his work in the field of neuroscience. He is currently focused on the function of excitatory and inhibitory synapses in brain health and diseases, which have already significantly advanced the national interest through analyzing the molecular mechanisms underlying normal brain function and introducing avenues for addressing disorders associated with synaptic dysfunction.

The expertise our client leverages in his peer review service is the direct result of his own research experience and achievements. Thus, through his peer review service, he has completed at least 30 reviews in addition to directly promoting cellular, physiological, and behavioral neuroscience and enhancing the field of neuroscience.

To file an I-140 petition under the EB-1A (Alien of Extraordinary Ability) category, he so sought assistance from the North America Immigration Law Group. The objective was to showcase his accomplishments as well as possible. We carefully evaluated the veracity of his qualifications and demonstrated his substantial contributions to his employment in the EB1A petition package. This package was then forwarded to the USCIS for further adjudication of his case.

We pointed up a few crucial details in his EB1A petition package that made a difference in the outcome.

• We concluded that his research addresses some of our nation’s most pressing issues, including the need for an advanced understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms of normal neuronal development in the brain and to address the prevalence of anxiety disorders.
• In addition, we emphasized that his publications accumulated 255 citations from at least 27 countries. By utilizing his research, his peers corroborated that the results of our client’s research served as important support and context for the findings elicited from their synaptic studies.
• Besides, these contributions, coupled with his distinctive publication record i.e. 8 peer-reviewed journal articles (2 of them first-authored), he has provided independent researchers from around the world with insight critical to a range of advances in the field of neuroscience.
• Furthermore, his work has received funding from a prestigious organization, the Department of Science and Technology (DST) of India. Considering the inherent value of his neuroscience research in combination with his funding, his notable publication and citation record, and the high esteem the scientific community holds for his work, it is clear that he is one of the foremost scientists working in the neuroscience field today.

Moreover, there is no doubt that he will continue to make additional important contributions in the future, and he must be supported in his continuing research in the United States. Thus, we included 4 recommendation letters in his EB1A petition packet to bolster his case even further. One of his recommenders contributed the following statement:

“Based on his illustrious academic and professional career and his published research and findings, I have come to view [client] as a scientist of singular talent whose endeavors act as a driving force for progress in the neuroscience arena. His research efforts thus far have demonstrated unrivaled capability in isolating and solving issues of considerable consequence and interest in his field that have far-reaching real-world implications, especially in the domain of understanding and treating psychiatric and neurological conditions. If the U.S. wishes to remain a world leader in the advancement of healthcare, the [client] must be supported and encouraged in his pursuits.”

More than 32,000 cases have been approved for Wegreen. Once more, we accomplished a noteworthy accomplishment by securing this client’s EB1A approval. Only a week after we filed our client’s petition with USCIS, he was granted this approval. We are grateful for the premium processing service’s rapid results. We are gratified that we were able to persuade USCIS that our client’s research has significantly advanced our understanding of the molecular basis of neurological disorders and synaptic function, with profound implications for the broader field of neuroscience. We express our gratitude to our client for choosing our law firm, as we believe our contribution played a crucial role in this success story.
