«The last month of my master thesis consisted of staining worms with Oil Red O to study the lipid content of them. One morning I realised that my worms were fixed in some weird positions and some of them seemed letters. I put together some of these pictures and I obtained the ICMAB name. It was difficult to coordinate all of the worms, but now I can say I am a worm tamer.»
