Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because although the petitioner met three of the initial evidentiary criteria, the evidence in totality was deemed insufficient to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim. A single award from eight years prior and one article in a major publication from over two years ago did not establish that the petitioner had risen to the very top of his field.
