Chest 2026: shocking rates for fellows, interns, residents and medical students

Long live conferences that provide free registration to residents/fellows/med students and/or affordable rates.

I attended chest in the past and tbh it wasn't any better than the cardio or gi events I've been to for way lower registration fees.

Last year I noted that many poster boards were also empty. Several rapid fire presenters also did not show up. Not surprising.

Provide affordable registration costs to these people and they will be there. Duh

End of rant.

Just gotta say, it is such a shame that bnb doesn't have an app and the website keeps asking to sign in multiple times a day when using on a phone

I love the videos but it is quite a shame that they didn't even care to set up an app for it. Boot camp has a stable app and works fine.

I watch bnb over my phone when am outside and it is horrible as after every hour or two it will refuse to remember that I already signed I'm and I'll have to close all tabs and then sign on again. At times in the middle of a video.

End of rant.

Need statin and eczetimibe

So basically need a prescription for these two. Been using them but prescription was from overseas and now am in the US.

Any cheap telehealth? I tried Amazon but since I don't have a recent lipid profile they refused to issue 90 day equivalent.

Any website or YouTube recommendations for food prep for vegetarians?

I'll be staying at someone's place for a few months, and they're vegetarian. One of the house rules is that no meat is allowed in the house, so I want to be respectful and switch to vegetarian meals, at least for anything I cook or eat at home.

I usually meal prep, but I'm a bit lost when it comes to vegetarian recipes. I'm looking for meals that are filling, reasonably high in protein, and practical for meal prep.

I'm in the US if that matters, and I don't really have a preference when it comes to cuisine. I'm happy to try anything.

Can anyone recommend good YouTube channels, blogs, cookbooks, or other resources for vegetarian meal prep? Bonus points if they're beginner-friendly and focus on everyday meals instead of overly complicated recipes.

Thanks!

Those whose j1 is ending this month and haven't had their waivers approved yet, what are your plans?

Are you applying for abim or boards waivers?

What if you are done with abim and boards eg those who did chief years?

Any of you considering leaving? What's the step to be back? Since h1b will require the 100k fee. Are you filing for h1b regardless to maintain legal presence etc

Medical students are using a popular research tool to pump out misleading studies Critics say TriNetX’s easy analyses of electronic medical records fuel quick-and-dirty publications from inexperienced authors

By med students they probably should see the posters at conferences by residents 😂

What are the key things to have by now if you are applying for the match in September?

I have one exam done and next one soon.

Oet also done and I have my license from home country so pathway one once I finish my last exam.

I have one lor from a rotation I did last year and two observerships planned for August.

Not sure I'll be able to do step three before sept.

I don't need visa. Old grad, continuous practice in im and cardio but gap of a year.

I have some research so pubs and so on are fine.

After applying I'll be doing a short postdoc then shifting to New York limited license practice, so that I can talk about it during interviews.

What key things are to be added that I am missing here?

Planning to apply to im and fm only.

USIMGs who matched, how important or determinant was the geo location for you?

I've been living in the West Coast (California) for the past 3 months and shifting to New York for work in three months.

I would obviously prefer to match in California as my family is there. However, most west coast programs seem to be very strict with the yog cut off which could filter me out.

I will be flying within the US with two checked suitcases and one carry on. How to ensure I don't have to check in the carry on?

The carry on will contain multiple electronic devices that will be damaged if they are checked in.

Some airlines just decide that yeah you have to check this in despite having paid for carry on.

Old USIMGs with IM or Peds residency back home and struggling to match? Consider this reverse pathway route

The Reverse Pathway

If you are a US IMG who completed a residency in Internal Medicine or Pediatrics outside the United States, are ECFMG certified, and have passed Step 3 but are struggling to match into residency, consider this reverse pathway.

You can either apply through the regular fellowship match cycle (applications typically begin downloading next month) or wait until fellowship results are released and then contact programs with unfilled positions. Applying through the match may be easier, as it gives you access to the list of participating programs and positions.

In Internal Medicine, several fellowships, including Nephrology, Infectious Diseases, and Geriatrics, often have high unfilled rates, sometimes exceeding 50%. These programs may be willing to consider applicants with your background.

For Pediatrics, similar opportunities exist in less competitive subspecialties. Reviewing recent FREIDA reports can help identify specialties with available positions.

What happens after fellowship?

The most common pathway is to reapply for the residency match after completing fellowship training. By then, you may have several advantages:

Stronger letters of recommendation from U.S. faculty.

Additional U.S. clinical experience through your fellowship.

A more competitive overall application profile.

Opportunities to attend conferences and network within your specialty.

In some cases, residency programs may allow you to complete an Internal Medicine residency in two years instead of three, provided you obtain approval from the ABIM and your program director. While this is not guaranteed, it can be an option worth exploring.

For applicants who have been unsuccessful in the Match despite being ECFMG certified and Step 3 qualified, this pathway may offer a way to gain U.S. experience, strengthen their credentials, and improve their chances of ultimately securing a residency position.

J1 dos rule change : see what pds had to say

https://www.regulations.gov/document/ICEB-2025-0001-0001/comment?pageNumber=2&sortBy=postedDate&sortDirection=desc

​

​

So basically there was a period of public opinion whereby the public was free to enter their opinion on that

​

There were several program directors posting, I saved a screenshot from someone who shared it in a group.

​

Added the link for others to see what others had to say.

​

Nonetheless it's the administration who makes the final call, which they did and decided to move forward with the proposed four year rule.
