It remains difficult for mobile robots to continue accurate self-localization when they are suddenly teleported to a location that is different from their beliefs during navigation. Incorporating insights from neuroscience into developing a spatial cognition model for mobile robots may make it possible to acquire the ability to respond appropriately to changing situations, similar to living organisms. Recent neuroscience research has shown that during teleportation in rat navigation, neural populations of place cells in the cornu ammonis-3 region of the hippocampus, which are sparse representations of each other, switch discretely.

Exosomes, a subset of small extracellular vesicles, carry various nucleic acids, proteins, lipids, amino acids and metabolites. They function as a mode of intercellular communication and molecular transfer. Exosome cargo molecules, including small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs), are involved in the immune response in various organisms.
