Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed benefit of their work would be national in scope. Although the petitioner had a notable research history, the AAO affirmed the director's finding that the intended role as Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine would provide primarily local, rather than national, benefits.
