Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum of three required evidentiary criteria. While the AAO agreed that the petitioner met the criteria for judging the work of others and for authorship of scholarly articles, it found her evidence was insufficient to establish that her work constituted original contributions of major significance to the field. The AAO concluded that high citation counts and comparative rankings alone did not demonstrate the broader impact required for this criterion.
