Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that he met the minimum of three evidentiary criteria. The AAO concurred with the Director that the petitioner met the 'display' criterion, but found the evidence submitted for the 'awards' and 'published material' criteria was insufficient. Specifically, a grant was considered developmental funding rather than an award for excellence, and published articles lacked required information or proof that the publications constituted major media.
