dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Medical Research
Decision Summary

While the petitioner's work in hepatology research was acknowledged to be of substantial intrinsic merit and national in scope, it was not established that the petitioner would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications or had a past history of achievement with influence on the field as a whole.
