Your opportunity to partner with Emory University physicians to help make discoveries that will change our understanding of aging for generations to come.
The online Emory Healthy Aging Study is the largest clinical research study ever conducted in Atlanta. It is a game-changing effort to further our scientific understanding of how we age, and to identify predictive markers through cutting edge technologies that can predict diseases that occur more commonly in later years such as Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. We are currently seeking participants for this groundbreaking study, which you can participate in from the comfort of your own home!
To participate, simply sign up online, complete a brief health history questionnaire and occasionally respond to various surveys and complete online memory tasks. Researchers may also contact you about other studies based on the information you provide.
To be eligible for the study, participants must be 18 and older and residents of the United States and its territories. Participants must also read and understand English.
As an academic medical center, Emory’s mission includes providing care for you and also researching how to provide even better care in the future.

The Emory Healthy Aging Study will build an extremely large database by recruiting a large number of participants to take part in the study over a long period of time. We will keep involvement as simple and easy as possible. You can do more or less, depending on your desire. The data we collect may also help you and your physician learn more about your overall health.
