That exists, but there's upfront educational costs that need to be handled first.
> Massive academic funding
Look at Europe: their acedemics work much more closely with industry. Get a someone who can code in a room with a physician, and I garuntee they can find a problem to work on. Show a successful prototype, and we're way below "minimum viable product" here. Show a graph with real data and money will start looking for you.
Computer scientists, mathematicians, physicists, and engineers need to go to biology conferences. And biologists should be going to math, ML, and software conferences.
1. A legal framework for health-related products & services that meaningfully protects individual privacy, and yet also preserves the conditions for the kind of velocity and rate of change that brings technological progress to the masses reliably and quickly.
2. Massive academic funding for more “pure” research in hardware & software design, engineering, the philosophy of what’s possible, the phenomenon and ethics of what we choose to build, and so on. TLDR Pay more people more money to do important research in the public domain, which I can’t help but think would attract many of the CS types you mentioned.
