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 that mTOR inhibition induces autophagy to reduce polyglutamine toxicity in Huntington disease models, a seminal finding published in Nature Genetics.
The researcher pioneered in situ detection methods for genomic regulatory elements in Drosophila, establishing a foundational approach for visualizing gene regulation within cellular contexts.
The researcher developed a targeted method to eliminate synaptic transmission in Drosophila using tetanus toxin, establishing a critical tool for linking specific neural circuits to behavioral defects.
