Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the regulatory requirement of meeting at least three evidentiary criteria. Although the petitioner met the criterion for judging the work of others, the director and the AAO found that her evidence was insufficient to demonstrate that her scientific work constituted original contributions of 'major significance' to her field.
