Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner's most promising work in his current field had only recently been published or was yet to be published at the time of filing, making it impossible to gauge its influence on the field. The petitioner's past record did not justify projections of future benefit, and his prior research was deemed unrelated to his current work.
