Thinking about a future in healthcare or research—but not sure where to begin?

At Iowa Diabetes, you don’t need years of experience to make a meaningful impact. As a Clinical Research Assistant (RA), you’ll gain hands-on experience working with patients while contributing to clinical studies that shape the future of diabetes and obesity treatment.

This is more than a job—it’s a starting point. You’ll build real clinical skills, learn how research works in practice, and be part of a team that’s advancing medicine every day.

How We’re Different

Founded in 2007, Iowa Diabetes is a leading diabetes research and care organization in West Des Moines, Iowa, dedicated to improving the lives of adults and children living with diabetes, obesity, and related conditions. Through comprehensive clinical care, patient education, and innovative research, our team has conducted over 250 clinical studies and continues to make a meaningful impact on individual health and the broader community.

At Iowa Diabetes, how we work is just as important as what we do. Our approach is intentional, team-driven, and centered on making a meaningful impact—both for our patients and our employees.

✔ Purpose-driven work: We are committed to advancing diabetes and obesity care through clinical research that improves lives locally and globally.

✔ A culture of growth and support: We invest in our team through training, mentorship, and hands-on learning opportunities, helping you build skills and confidence from day one.

✔ Collaborative team environment: Our clinical and research teams work closely together, creating a supportive setting where communication, respect, and teamwork are the standard.

✔ Patient-centered approach: We work with engaged, motivated patients and prioritize quality interactions over volume-driven care.

✔ Intentional leadership: Our leadership team is actively involved, approachable, and focused on creating a workplace where people feel valued and empowered.
