Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for this classification. The AAO found that the petitioner's memberships were in associations that did not require outstanding achievements for entry. Additionally, the petitioner's role as a reviewer for a conference was considered a junior task and not evidence of judging the work of others at a level consistent with extraordinary ability.
