dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Biomedical Research
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate the impact or influence of her work. The AAO determined that simply documenting her engagement in biomedical research was insufficient, as there is no blanket national interest waiver for this field. The evidence provided did not establish that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a minimally qualified U.S. worker.
