Decision Summary
The AAO withdrew the director's denial but found the petition was not approvable in its current state. The case was remanded because the petitioner's evidence was insufficient or mischaracterized, such as listing unpublished manuscripts as 'peer-reviewed scholarly publications' and failing to submit all referenced witness letters. This requires further action and consideration by the original office.
