Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker. The evidence, including letters of recommendation from close colleagues and a modest citation record, was found insufficient to demonstrate that the petitioner's work had stood out in the field to a degree warranting a national interest waiver.
