Abstract: Correlative Light Electron Microscopy (CLEM) combines the strengths of light and electron microscopy in one experiment and the sum of such an experiment should provide more data / insight than each technique alone (1 + 1 = 3). There are many ways to perform a CLEM experiment but the experimental set up should primarily depend on the biological question to be answered. Sometimes a fairly simple approach suffices to answer the question. In other cases however it requires the development of new tools and instruments to adequately do so. In my presentation I will highlight this approach through a number of examples.
