• Descrição: In 2014, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to three scientists who have made groundbreaking contributions to the field of superresolution (SR) microscopy (SRM). The first commercial SR microscope came to market a decade earlier, and many other commercial options have followed. As commercialization has lowered the barrier to using SRM and the awarding of the Nobel Prize has drawn attention to these methods, biologists have begun adopting SRM to address a wide range of questions in many types of specimens. There is no shortage of reviews on the fundamental principles of SRM and the remarkable achievements made with these methods. We approach SRM from another direction: we focus on the current practical limitations and compromises that must be made when designing an SRM experiment. We provide information and resources to help biologists navigate through common pitfalls in SRM specimen preparation and optimization of image acquisition as well as errors and artifacts that may compromise the reproducibility of SRM data.
