@ampanmdagaba, @NoahGuzman14 do you guys think this can work for problems in theoretical neuroscience?
I mean interesting problems which won't be worked out in the next 10 years otherwise as they simultaneously require a combination of skills and solving a coordination problem.

Honestly, I find it hilarious that you are interested in my opinion about neuroscience :)) I've published like 3 good papers in my lifetime, and I'm not a "public thinker" either. My impact is ~2% of that of @KordingLab. Sure, I like to have opinions, but are they valuable? idk:)

I mean, thank you for treating me so well, I do really appreciate it, and you are very kind!! But for this question at least (how to solve theoretical neuroscience?) I feel so underqualified to answer, that I'm not even sure I have an opinion :)

Something like this must happen for theoretical neuroscience. There are similar initiatives, i.e. simonsfoundation.org/2016/11/24/neu…. But whether it can work is another question. We’re in the middle of an ontological crisis; not a lot of consensus and poor philosophical foundations.
