Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim required for the classification. Although the Director found she met three criteria, the AAO determined she did not meet the 'original contributions' criterion and that her evidence for judging (two manuscript reviews) and scholarly articles (six publications) was insufficient to prove she had risen to the very top of her field.
