Can an outstanding researcher/professor self petition

[r3]

Greetings gurus,

My father is a professor who has published 13 to 15 books (7 of them in the Library of Congresse\'s holdings), published over 60 papers in journals with international circulation.

He has also judged other people\'s academic work.

Can he apply for a green card by self petitioning?

Thanks,

r3.
