Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility by meeting at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. The AAO agreed that the petitioner met the criterion for lesser awards but found the evidence insufficient for 'published material about the petitioner' and 'original contributions of major significance.' The publications were not deemed major media, and the petitioner's contributions were not shown to be of major significance in the field as a whole.
