Significant Contributions
Auto-detected research lines — a seminal paper and the follow-up work building on it. Review and edit before using in a petition. Each Free PDF opens in a new tab — EB-1A organises this into the structure USCIS applies to Criterion 5 of 8 CFR § 204.5(h)(3)(v); EB-1B re-frames it under § 204.5(i)(3) (outstanding researcher); NIW presents it under prong 2 of Matter of Dhanasar.

The researcher established a foundational framework linking Cenozoic east-west extension in Tibet to broader Asian rift origins, subsequently refining Himalayan tectonic evolution models through integrated structural and sedimentary analysis.
The researcher established a foundational framework for understanding the deep crustal structure of northern Tibet through seminal work on metamorphic core complexes and subsequent detrital zircon geochronology.
The researcher established a foundational framework for understanding the tertiary structural evolution of the Gangdese thrust system, subsequently extending this analysis to the Cenozoic evolution of the eastern Himalayan syntaxis.
