       | "Build" is a bit sensational, as it implies nanomachines self-
       | replicating. This is not nearly that. It is simply a gel material
       | that uses the fish's body to spread, solidifies into a flexible
       | material, and is conductive. It has the potential of being non-
       | invasive and non-inflammatory. I would change the title to:
       | 
       | "Electrodes constructed using body's own chemistry inside of live
       | fish"
       | 
       | Much more accurate.
       | 
       | Anyway, neat.

         | That's more confusing. Is the spread of the material chemical
         | or mechanical?
