A person wearing a virtual reality headset is shown in profile, overlaid with digital graphics—including hexagonal patterns, code, and an outline of a brain—suggesting the use of VR technology to study cognition, neural processes, or other areas of cognitive science.

Cognitive Science is the interdisciplinary study of mind and intelligence.
