research is usually a long term committment...also i doubt if anyone ould go through the hassle of sponsoring ur H-1 unless u have grat credentials and demonstarte a desire to be there for a long term...s to answer your question i s ossible but highly improbable

Well it is almost impossible to get research paid position for 3 months, I gave around 20 interview in last couple of months for Research and every body needs commitment for 1-3 years and finally i got one with the commitment of 1 year. Even if you will commit for voluntary work they need a commitment of atleast three months to observe you befpre they hire you.

many imgs dont realise that research is a full time career in itself and needs a lot of effort and dedication..its not a stop gap arrangement to pad ur resume up or earn a qucik buck for a couple of months...
