Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proposed benefit of her work would be national in scope. The AAO determined that while pediatrics has substantial intrinsic merit, the impact of a single practicing pediatrician or lecturer is generally localized and negligible at a national level. The petitioner did not demonstrate that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than a qualified U.S. worker.
