Case Summary:

The distinguished client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the pleasure of working with in this case was a Staff Scientist from India working in the field of molecular biology. Her work had been particularly focused on understanding the mechanism of apoptosis, specifically in the development of innovative methods for the treatment and detection of cancers, leading to the improved diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy of these cancers and diseases. Her research results had directly contributed to the common understanding of the mechanisms of cancers, as well as the advancement of the ways in which these conditions are treated. We successfully demonstrated that her continued employment in the field would not only benefit those in her field, but the citizens of the United States at large. To achieve success in this case, we submitted extensive documentation proving our client’s highly significant contributions to the field of molecular biology, including at least 12 peer-reviewed journal articles, 9 conference presentations, and 16 conference abstracts and presentations. Her publications had been cited at least 336 times at the time of case filing, clearly demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in her field. The national scope of her research is underscored in this quote from an independent recommender, “Her results have proved that the enhanced expression of BIK in the Bcl-2 deficient cells will lead to cell death with autophagic features. This is hugely important for the further development of anticancer drugs. Being able to substitute natural apoptosis with induced autophagy has serious implications for the next generation of cancer drugs.” 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. Her NIW application was approved in less than 3 months.
