Case Summary:

In this case we were given the opportunity to work with a cardiologist from India whose work focused on improvements to our understanding of DNA transfer in Mycobacterium, management of rare causes of myocardial infarction, and advancements in the assessment of right ventricular function. In order for his case to be successful, we showed that his continued employment in this field would benefit the field of cardiology as a whole as well as the general populace of the United States. We submitted extensive documentation of our client’s highly significant contributions to his field, including evidence of the at least 122 citations his 4 peer-reviewed journal articles had received at the time of filing. The majority of these citations were from independent researchers across the globe, indicating the wide recognition his work has received and the wide reliance upon it in the field of cardiology. An independent recommender emphasized the importance of our client’s work: “[Client] demonstrated that MPI and PTASV work well as two parameters for determining right ventricular function with Doppler echocardiograms. These results are important because they show the usefulness and efficiency of an alternative to the costly and unclear right ventricular function assessments currently in use. [Client’s] Doppler echocardiographic method provides a safe and affordable way for providing diagnoses and prognoses for patients suffering from heart and lung disease, effectively improving the health of nation [sic].” Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW petition was approved in six months and twenty-one days.
