Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the first prong of the Dhanasar framework. The AAO concluded that her proposed endeavor was not described in sufficient detail, and she did not establish with evidence that her work as a pediatrician would have the broader implications necessary to demonstrate national importance.
