Correlating super-resolution fluorescence microscopy with cryo-electron tomography is a recent advancement in the field of cryo-electron microscopy that enables targeted, high-resolution imaging of specific biomolecules of interest. Critical to this approach is that the cryo-correlated light and electron microscopy (cryoCLEM) workflow requires samples to be cryogenically fixed prior to imaging, and thus a fluorescence microscope is required that can maintain the cryogenically preserved state of the sample while also being capable of super-resolution imaging. In this report, we outline the blueprint of a microscope that was designed for single molecule localization microscopy of cryosamples, and we describe the rationale behind its design. All specifications, including a detailed 3d model of the entire assembly, are freely available via ccb.lumc.nl/downloads-231.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
