Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum of three regulatory criteria. Although the AAO concurred that the petitioner demonstrated original contributions of major significance and also met the scholarly articles criterion, it found the evidence for awards and memberships insufficient. The petitioner's travel grants and research funding were not considered nationally recognized awards for excellence, and his professional memberships did not require outstanding achievements for entry.
