Description
The discovery of fast radio bursts (FRBs) was a serendipitous process, much like the detection of the first pulsar by S. J. Bell. Since the first FRB was identified in 2007, both hardware and software technologies for detecting these enigmatic transients have advanced dramatically, enabling the discovery of increasingly exotic events. In this talk, I will review the current state of FRB searches, covering both algorithmic and instrumental developments, and discuss future prospects for refining our search strategies.
