100% of my charitable donations are going to SENS. Why they do not get more play in the effective altruism community is beyond me.

Probably because they're unlikely to lead to anything special over and above general biology research.

Funding for SENS might fund research that could be considered too speculative for more conventional bio funders, though.

That's very cynical. What makes you say that?
