Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate she was well-positioned to advance her proposed endeavor. The AAO found that her presentations were typical for her field and did not establish a significant record of success, and her role in a funded research study was not shown to be sufficiently influential. Overall, the evidence was insufficient to meet the second prong of the Dhanasar framework.
