Fearless soldiers: Pentagon eyes new drugs to control human fear, anxiety | Christian News on Christian Today: "The Pentagon's innovative science division, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) hosted a conference this week, where the agency challenged labs to come up with this drug with ability to control human fear and anxiety, which will get funding from the Pentagon.



DARPA program manager Doug Weber particularly challenged labs to develop tools that will establish direct communication and delivery of information to the nervous system. Such medicines and tools will give American soldiers the capability to manipulate their nerves, thereby enabling them to control vital signs such as lowering blood pressure and moderating response to infectious diseases."
