Researchers seek to use IR light to keep on-duty sleep-deprived warfighters alert

ARLINGTON, Va. – U.S. military researchers will brief industry next month on an upcoming project to develop a combination drug and device to help sleep-deprived warfighters to stay alert without side-effects like anxiety, irritability, or euphoria. Officials of the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in Arlington, Va., will brief industry in-person and by webinar on 12 and 14 June 2024 on the Alert Warfighter Enablement (AWARE) project.
