The AAO found that the petitioner's witness letters were from close collaborators who could not attest first-hand to impact outside their institutions, identified no concrete external effects from her work, and that the petitioner's own statements and the general importance of her field could not objectively establish the required national interest. The petitioner provided no persuasive objective evidence distinguishing her work from that of other qualified scholars.
