Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the first prong of the Dhanasar framework, which requires the proposed endeavor to have substantial merit and national importance. The AAO agreed with the Director that the petitioner's evidence was insufficient, as her role was found to be predominantly clinical care, with limited time devoted to research. Furthermore, the record lacked specific information about the research projects she intended to undertake.
