Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the director determined the petitioner did not establish sustained national or international acclaim. The petitioner's memberships in professional associations did not require outstanding achievements, their participation as a peer reviewer was not shown to be indicative of acclaim beyond the routine expectations of the field, and their contributions were not proven to be of major significance.
