To think with other people's brain and about ideas
Hi everybody,
I would like to ask for your help again.
1st question: I would like to express: 'to think with other people's brain'. My idea (based on my dictionary) :
'I tried to project myself into its role and think with its brain'
or
'I tried to adapt myself to its role and think with its brain'
Are these correct at all? Could you tell me better expressions for that?
2nd question: I would like to express that one idea is very interesting it is worth to think about it. Maybe it is not positive. E.g.: when an operation fails and the patient dies. That is important to know what was the reason of its death. So, that problem is ... . (and I expect an adjective instead of '...'. It is important).
Is there such an adjective?
I'm just a beginner so feel free to correct my sentences besides answering.
Thanks in advance.

1st question:
In my sentence 'its' replace 'his/her' (Maybe it is a wrong approach. I really don't know.) and I think of a person (for example Hamlet, examiner, detective and so forth). So I thought to something like the second one ("I am trying to project myself into the role of Hamlet") but it seemed out of the ordinary (in general speaking). Could y

#2 I mentioned one example which is in connection with operation. So, suppose that one patient dies during the operation. After this operation the operating surgeons will think over whether his death was natural or it was the result of a human fault. So the emph
