Summary
A German startup, TimeTeller, has created a saliva test to analyze an individual’s circadian rhythm, aiming to reduce side effects from cancer treatments. The test, according to the company, could help personalize treatment timing. The startup is based in Berlin and has received support from a research institute. The project is still in early stages, with no timeline for commercial release. The company said the test could improve patient outcomes by aligning therapy with biological clocks.
