Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. While the Director found the petitioner met the criteria for judging the work of others and authorship of scholarly articles, the AAO concluded the evidence did not demonstrate that the petitioner's original contributions were of 'major significance,' as the supporting letters lacked detail on their actual impact and implementation in the field.
