Decision Summary

The Director denied the petition, finding the petitioner met only two of the three claimed criteria. On appeal, the AAO reviewed the evidence for the 'original scientific contributions' criterion, including expert letters and media reports, and concluded that the petitioner did satisfy this third criterion. Therefore, the case was remanded for a final merits determination based on the totality of the evidence.
