Dear BBB,

knowing how helpful you are I have one simple question for you:
I want to do unpaid research in the US and I know I need a J1 research visa in order to do that. What I don't know is whether I am allowed to convert that visa to a visa that will allow me to work as a resident after I am done with my research.
Thanks for your time.

Check the ECFMG web site for more information. I heard rumors that you have to wait a year after a J1 research visa before starting a clinical J1, but I don't know for certain.
