Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO determined that the petitioner's awards were academic in nature and limited to students, rather than nationally recognized prizes for excellence in his professional field. Furthermore, the petitioner did not demonstrate that his memberships in professional associations required outstanding achievements of their members as judged by experts.
