Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the criterion for published materials. The AAO determined that while the submitted articles related to the petitioner's work, they were not 'about' the petitioner himself, as they did not mention him by name in the body of the text, which is required to demonstrate national or international acclaim.
