Definable (p,q)(p,q)-theorem for NIP formulas

Assume that the formula ϕ(x;y)\phi(x;y) is NIP. Let MM be a model and let ϕ(x;b)L(U)\phi(x;b)\in L(\mathcal U) be non-dividing over MM. Definable (p,q)(p,q)-conjecture. There is a formula ψ(y)tp(b/M)\psi(y)\in \operatorname{tp}(b/M) such that the partial type

{ϕ(x;b):bψ(M)}\{\phi(x;b):b\in \psi(M)\}

is consistent. This was presented as a definable version of the (p,q)(p,q)-theorem and was stated as an open conjecture in the paper.
