Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary met the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. The AAO concluded that a bronze prize from a conference competition did not qualify as a nationally or internationally recognized award for excellence. Furthermore, while the beneficiary had published articles with citations, this evidence was deemed insufficient to demonstrate that her contributions were of major significance to the field.
