Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility by meeting the requisite three evidentiary criteria. The AAO agreed with the director that while the petitioner demonstrated participation as a judge of the work of others, he did not prove that his scientific contributions were of major significance to his field as a whole. Therefore, the petitioner did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim and that he has risen to the very top of his field.
