Research J-1

My wife is a dentist here on an H4 visa. She got an offer for a job in research on a J-1. I will be applying for a green card next year from my current H1 status. Will she be subject to the 2 year return requirement? Will it reduce the chances of her getting a green card because she would need a waiver? I hope that somebody can answer.

Can't she get a H1-B instead? I think it would be safer. As far as I know, even if she was married to an american citzen she still would have to comply with the 2- year HRR, unless she gets a waiver, which is not so easy.
