Year End Fundraisers For Rejuvenation Research at SENS Research Foundation and LEV Foundation

When it comes to treating aging as a medical condition, it is important to fund the right sort of research program. All too much of the field of translational aging research is focused on finding ways to produce small benefits, such as via the use of repurposed existing supplements. This may produce gains for investors, but it won't meaningfully change the present shape of a human life. We need to do better than that. Fortunately, there are a small number of non-profit organizations and academic groups focused on development of the means of rejuvenation, rather than on means of modestly slowing aging. Two of the best are the SENS Research Foundation and LEV Foundation, both informed by the Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS), a list of important contributing causes of aging, the cell and tissue damage that causes dysfunction, alongside proposed forms of therapy to repair that damage. Both of these non-profit organizations are presently running year end fundraisers to support their ongoing research programs, covering important areas of aging and rejuvenation that are not receiving sufficient attention elsewhere in the research community, or that are slowed by challenges in the fundamental science, or that are neglected by researchers due to a lack of tooling or a foundation to proceed. I consider both the SENS Research Foundation and LEV Foundation to be worthy recipients for your charitable donations. If you want to see a future in which aging has be...
