A Northwestern University-led team of researchers has signed a cooperative agreement with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to develop a wireless, fully implantable device that will control the body's circadian clock, halving the time it takes to recover from disrupted sleep/wake cycles.
The first phase of the highly interdisciplinary program will focus on developing the implant. The second phase, contingent on the first, will validate the device. If that milestone is met, then researchers will test the device in human trials, as part of the third phase. The full funding corresponds to $33 million over 4 1/2 years.

And someone could make a “mistake” and kill you.
Or it gets hacked and someone kills you.
Mr mm and I are starting more and more to avoid computerized anything. When we need some gadget or tool, we try to find one that is not computer controlled, something that’s all mechanical and you can fix yourself without going into bankruptcy buying the computer components.
And I am NOT going to let anyone computerize my body.
yup
I’ll just wait for the vaccine.
Did you know that even chain saws are coming computerized????
i would bet some of them, yep
I’ll pass. I’ve got an iPhone that I use to wake me up.😃
My sleep/wake cycles are just fine the old-fashioned way, thanks.
The Mad Scientists are silencing madly.
The way it’s being presented is so deceitful.
“Living pharmacy” my foot.
They are pretending this is something good for you that will help you instead of something that someone will someday use to control you.
Ummmm,sure. What could go wrong?The government wants to disarm us after 244 yrs 'cuz they plan to do things we would shoot them for!Nothing, Citizen, to think otherwise is, umm, unwise...
At no point in history has any government ever wanted its people to be defenseless for any good reason ~ nully's son
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
Wow! One third of the population willingly works graveyard shift because that's the only time they are actually awake?
MARVELOUS!
Soma?........................

IIRC, Marylin Monroe was killed................ er, died from and ‘overdose’ of ‘sleeping pills’.....................
Thanks, nully and all. Better living through chemistry? Sometimes / sometimes not. It depends.
Just implant that with the covid vax.
I read a book about 20 years ago.
It was a conspiracy theory kind of book looking at the future.
They guy had some very interesting ideas that at the time seemed far fetched and would have gotten him written off as a whack job.
A lot of it was concerning nanotechnology and medicine and how people could be controlled that way.
Not any more does it sound far fetched. When I remeber the name of the book, I’ll let you know.
I’m skeptical
