Early registration and abstract submission are open for the Second Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence Conference in Cambridge, UK. As organizer Aubrey de Grey notes, "the preliminary program already has 50 confirmed speakers, all of them
world leaders in their field. ... The purpose of the SENS conference series, like all the SENS initiatives (such as the journal Rejuvenation Research and the Methuselah Mouse Prize), is to expedite the development of truly effective therapies to postpone and treat human aging by tackling it as an engineering problem: not seeking elusive and probably illusory magic bullets, but instead enumerating the accumulating molecular and cellular changes that eventually kill us and identifying ways to repair - reverse - those changes, rather than merely to slow down their further accumulation."
