Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While the AAO concurred that the petitioner's work in immunology and cancer research is of intrinsic merit and national in scope, it found the petitioner had not established that they would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker, lacking a demonstrated history of significant influence on the field.
