We join the rest of the community in congratulating Matthew Bailes, Duncan Lorimer, and Maura McLaughlin, the recipients of the 2023 Shaw Prize for the discovery of fast radio bursts. This is well-deserved recognition of some of the pioneers in this young field. (Why, this newsletter wouldn't even exist without their work!) Meanwhile, as usual, we hope you enjoy this month's round-up of the FRB news and results.
