Stanley Kubrick’s “A Clockwork Orange” features an experimental treatment — the Ludovico Technique — used to change the behavior of a young man who was addicted to sex and violence.

A team of nine researchers led by the University of Houston (UH) this week announced the development of an anti-fentanyl vaccine. The vaccine is designed to block fentanyl’s ability to enter the brain — and thus block its ability to create a “high.”
According to a study in the journal Pharmaceutics, the research team tested 60 rats, 28 of which received the three-dose regimen of the vaccine.
