2/ In this paper, we show that unexpected events drive different changes in the responses of somata and distal apical dendrites in primary visual cortex pyramidal neurons. 
3/ Previous research has shown that neurons in sensory areas respond to unexpected events. It’s hypothesized that these responses guide our brain in learning a predictive, hierarchical model of the world in an unsupervised (or self-supervised) manner.
