Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that he would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker. The AAO determined that claims made by counsel regarding the prestige of the petitioner's publication were unsupported by the evidence provided. The decision emphasized that the unsupported assertions of counsel do not constitute evidence.
