AFAR in the News: SuperAgers Family Study recognized by Digital Health Association’s Spring 2025 Digital Health Awards

The AFAR SuperAgers Family Study and Initiative has been recognized with two awards from the Digital Health Association’s Spring 2025 Digital Health Awards.

Announced on June 6th, 2025, AFAR and SuperAgers communications received:

-Merit Award for Social Media for the SuperAgers Family Study Enrollment Facebook Campaign.

AFAR has worked with FINN Partners to develop the social media campaigns. The SuperAgers Family Study site was created by Vibrent Health.

Twice a year the Digital Health Awards honors the best digital health resources developed for consumers and health professionals. The awards program is organized by the Health Information Resource Center (HIRC), a clearinghouse for professionals who work in consumer health fields. The 27th annual Digital Health Awards is an extension of the HIRC’s National Health Information Awards, the largest program of its kind in the United States, with the winners selected by more than 6 dozen professionals in health communications and design. Digital health resources developed, produced, published or updated between 1/1/2024 and 3/31/2025 were eligible for entry in the Spring 2025 Digital Health Awards.

The SuperAgers Family Study, led by AFAR in collaboration with the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Boston University School of Medicine, aims to collect data from a large group of individuals who have lived to age 95 or more. The Study's goal is to understand and uncover the biological factors contributing to healthy aging and exceptional longevity shared among SuperAgers and their families.
