Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed. Although the AAO found the petitioner met three evidentiary criteria (authorship of scholarly articles, leading or critical roles, and original contributions of major significance), it concluded that upon final merits determination, the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim and that his achievements place him in the small percentage at the very top of his field.
