He loved naming things.
He loved naming things.
So he kept insisting that I should find the name.
So I made this long list I still have, like, in my notebook.
Like, I had a long list of about 20.
And I would, like, keep sending Ben one.
And, you know, like, Ben was always awake, like, 24 hours.
Yeah, he didn't sleep much.
He never slept.
So I remember after sending many emails going back and forth, and he was just like, no, bad name, bad name.
I don't like it.
And then at one point, I thought, well, OID because it's like, and then Assemble because we're Assemble the circuits.
So I thought Assembloid.
And I sent this and it says, perfect.
I love it.
So you named Assembloids.
I named Assembloids and Ben sort of like blessed it, like one night at like 3 a.m.
And so that was the first Assembloid.
And the first Assembloid was for cells migrating.
