Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for at least three of the required regulatory criteria. While the petitioner met the criteria for judging and authorship of scholarly articles, the AAO concluded that he did not establish that his original contributions were of major significance to his field as a whole. The record lacked sufficient evidence that others in the field had utilized his findings in a way that resulted in a significant impact.
