New NIW Successful Stories (36)

Ms. Lee

Ms. Lee is a gifted scientist with exceptional abilities and outstanding accomplishments in the research field of molecular mechanism of oligodendrocyte development. She obtained her master’s degree in a prestigious Chinese university and also possesses about 10 years of research experience in biomedical science.

In 2006, Ms. Lee retained our firm for her NIW petition. Our experienced attorneys reviewed her background carefully and designed a petition package suited to her. We argued that Ms. Lee’s work leads to better knowledge about the molecular and genetic pathways that control oligodendrocyte origin, differentiation and regeneration, which is important for encouraging myelin re-growth and repair and providing a potential cure in spinal cord injury and MS patients. Her research is clearly beneficial and of substantial intrinsic merit.  In addition, statistics show that 50 million Americans have a permanent, neurological disability that limits their daily activities, among which 250,000 cases of traumatic spinal cord injury were reported in 2006 at a cost of treatment of $7.7 billion annually. Ms. Lee’s proven abilities and past accomplishments suggest that the benefits her work would bring will be realized if she were to continue to work in the US. Just as one of the independent advisor said in the advisory opinion, “we cannot afford to allow the US to fall behind the rest of the world in this important research field because of our loss of the crucial contributions from Ms. Lee”. We also collected all the evidence of her publications and peer-reviewed articles in the petition package to support her application.

Ms. Lee’s petition was submitted at the end of June and got approved in early September 2006.
