dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Neurological Research
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish a past record of achievement that would justify a national interest waiver. At the time of filing, the petitioner had no published articles in his claimed field of memory research, and the evidence, including witness letters from non-independent sources, did not demonstrate that his work had a significant impact or had been cited by other researchers.
