Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. While the petitioner satisfied the criteria for judging the work of others and authorship of scholarly articles, the AAO found the evidence insufficient to establish that his original contributions were of major significance to the field as a whole or that he played a leading or critical role for distinguished organizations.
