Just got rejection letter from NSC on NIW.
The reason is that the evidence is not sufficient enough for an exemption
from the job offer requirement.
Basic background:
Ph.D from a US university
postdoc in a top 20 university
Biomedical science
Two publications, both first authors
Only 4 citations for one paper, one reason is that the paper is just
published. Another reason is that my field is a new one, and not many people
are working on it.
This is the main reason for rejection as I didn't stand
