Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for at least three of the ten regulatory criteria. The Director had initially credited the petitioner with meeting two criteria (judging the work of others and authorship of scholarly articles). The AAO affirmed that the petitioner did not meet the criteria for published material about him in major media or for original contributions of major significance, thus failing to reach the required threshold of three criteria.
