Decision Summary

The AAO found that the Director erred in determining the petitioner's research on Type 1 diabetes did not have national importance. However, the AAO also concluded that the Director's analysis for the 'well-positioned' prong was insufficient and lacked a specific explanation. Therefore, the case was remanded for a new decision consistent with the AAO's analysis.
