Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. While the AAO determined the petitioner satisfied the criteria for 'published material about the alien' and 'authorship of scholarly articles', it found he did not establish that his scholarly contributions were of major significance to the field. As the petitioner only met two out of the required three criteria, the appeal was dismissed.
