Due to COVID-19 the 42nd Annual Virtual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society was offerred virtually as The CogSci 2020 Virtual Meeting. It adhered to the traditional format, and featured all planned keynote talks and invited panels. In addition, we were delighted to feature the inaugural Elman Symposium to honor this year’s Elman Prize winner Jenny Saffran, the Glushko Symposium featuring this year’s dissertation winners, as well as the Rumelhart keynote by Stanislas Dehaene. The Virtual Meeting featured Regular talks (15 minute talk) as well as Posters (5 minute talk accompanying poster). Talks and posters were streamed in real-time with live Q&A where possible.
