Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum evidentiary requirements for the classification. Although the Director initially found the petitioner satisfied three criteria, the AAO determined on de novo review that the evidence for nationally recognized awards and for judging the work of others was insufficient. As the petitioner only met the criterion for scholarly articles, he did not demonstrate sustained acclaim or that he is at the top of his field.
