Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. The Director had found the petitioner met two criteria (judging and scholarly articles), but the AAO determined on appeal that the petitioner did not meet the criteria for memberships or original contributions. The petitioner's memberships did not require outstanding achievements, and his scientific contributions were not shown to be of major significance to the field.
