dismissed EB-2 NIW Case: Proteomics
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the third prong of the national interest waiver test. While the AAO acknowledged the petitioner's work in proteomics and cancer research was of substantial intrinsic merit and national in scope, it found that the petitioner had not established a past history of achievement or influence on the field sufficient to demonstrate that he would serve the national interest to a greater extent than a minimally qualified U.S. worker.
