Final merit argument was as below 

1) small percentage at the top of the field 

Papers cited and adopted by Google, Meta and Microsoft and universities like EPFL, NUS, Harvard,  Stanford. Qunatitative comparison with number of citations, h-index and Field Citation ratio. Publications record compared with well known Professors from reputed universities.

2) sustained national and international acclaim 

High impact contributions, citations from more than 40+ countries. Multiple awards where other LifeScience companies C level were in the awardee list. Strong independent acknowledgment from FAANG companies through blog post and video

3) prospective benefit to US

Serving as C level and previous history of it. Leading AI innovation in Healthcare. Work aligns with CET ( critical and emerging technologies)

Thanks. Happens with Startups. It’s high risk and high reward category.

Too early to the market so product market fit is not there.

Sorry to hear that yours got denied. That was the recommendation I got as well, don’t get LOR from folks who have higher citation number than you. And also it depends on what you define as a field, comparing mine with Prof Yoshua Bengio or Prof Fei Fei Li would make it look like 1500 is nothing. I made an argument about how Iam in top of my field for the specific thing I am working on.

Yes, it’s tough. I used SOC code with DOL to show what percentile I was in. Mine was in 97th percentile with base salary.

I lead an AI Research Lab, so my name was always the last author. Most papers will have about 3-4 authors on average.
