It has been another busy month for fast radio bursts! This issue of the Newsletter includes some new FRBs detected at FAST, prompt follow up of an FRB at X-ray and UV bands triggered by a VOEvent notification, further modeling of the repeating FRB population suggesting that their number will continue to grow, and much more. We hope you enjoy this round up.
Also, a quick reminder to our readers, as we enter the job application season: if you have any upcoming open positions specifically related to FRBs, please send us a note and we can advertise that in future issues.

• Following reports of renewed activity from the repeating FRB 20220912A (see, e.g., the 2023-07 issue of this Newsletter), Swift observed the field at X-ray and UV wavelengths, with no significant reported detections [ATel 16221].
• Using a recently commissioned "continuous commanding ToO mode", Swift responded to a CHIME VOEvent notification to observe the approximate location of a one-off FRB just 236 seconds after the radio burst. No obvious X-ray or UV counterparts were detected [ATel 16233].
• The faint FRB 20200317A was found in reprocessing of archival survey data from the CRAFTS survey at 1.25 GHz at FAST [ATel 16251].
