The AADA Advocacy Update also took home an APEX award for the “Newsletter” category.

In addition, the February 2025 issue was chosen as the best full issue of a non-profit medical journal in the Folio awards competition, while articles from two issues of DermWorld, October 2024 and February 2025, were chosen as finalists. This marks the 10th year in a row DermWorld has been a Folio finalist. Other Folio winners in 2025 included Consumer Reports, National Geographic, People, Travel and Leisure, and Wine Enthusiast.
