Single-cell patch-proteomics is a novel and powerful technique combining electrophysiological and quantitative proteomic characterization from individually sampled neurons. Following whole-cell patch clamp characterization of neuronal excitability, we collect intracellular contents and, using the latest advancements in Liquid Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry, identify and quantify peptides and their corresponding proteins. By cell-matched one-to-one associations between electrophysiological properties and protein abundance, this approach provides a means to elucidate molecular mechanisms of neuronal function on individual neuron basis.

"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.
