Researcher Angela Relógio optimises chemotherapy via the internal clock with TimeTeller

Angela Relógio was a guest on the podcast EQUALIZER, a podcast where entrepreneurs share their expertise and experiences to motivate women to start up. In conversation with the hosts Marlis Jahnke and Heidrun Twesten, two experienced entrepreneurs, Angela talks about her professional career, which took her from studying physics in Lisbon, Portugal, her doctorate at the EMBL in Heidelberg, her own research group at the Charité and Humboldt University, her move to the Medical School Hamburg and the founding of TimeTeller 2023 in Hamburg.

In a fascinating discussion, the audience learnt more about the "Circadian Rhythm", the support of mentors like Anne-Mette Jensen, the balance between career and family, and the challenges of funding in research and founding. Angela shared fascinating insights into how the internal clocks in our body cells work and much more in EQUALIZER #51.

The internal clock: A chat with DER SPIEGEL

A few weeks ago DER SPIEGEL visited the research group of Angela Relógio at the MSH Medical School Hamburg to find out more about the circadian clock (our internal 24 h clock). The result was an exciting short documentary where you can learn more about our research, TimeTeller, and some of our projects, including an ongoing study on pediatric oncology with Prof. Dr. Angelika Eggert, director of the Clinic for Pediatric Oncology and Hematology at the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin.
We are very grateful to the MSH our partner university, the scientists of the Relógio group, Deeksha Malhan, Müge Yalçin, Janina Hesse, Nina Nelson, Lisa Gottschlich, the medical students of the MSH, Nicole Neufeld, Caspar Stucke, Belinda Gärtner, and Thies Schnack and Mathis Schneider from DER SPIEGEL.
