Decision Summary

The appeal was sustained because the AAO determined the petitioner met the necessary criteria for the classification. The director had initially found the petitioner met only two criteria, but the AAO concurred on the 'judging' criterion and also found that evidence of well-cited articles and letters from experts established 'original scientific contributions of major significance'.
