You can also message us using this address if you want to be removed from the mailing list.

+## Plannning the next steps of AutSPACEs
+
+With the platform being ready to be deployed and used, it's now time to think about what should be coming next. In the spirit of co-created citizen science, we would like to use the time in our upcoming community meeting on Thursday 1st to brainstorm and decide these next steps with all of you. 
+
+We would love to have many of you attend if possible, but don't worry if you can not make it, we will send around a summary after the meeting!
+
+## Citizen Science at "EASST/4S"

+Last week, Bastian was in Amsterdam at the joint meeting of the _European Association for the Study of Science and Technology_ (EASST) and the _Society for Social Studies of Science_ (4S). There he gave a talk titled ["Citizen Science plaforms between democratisation and impact metrics"](https://zenodo.org/records/13124100) that was co-prepared with former AutSPACEs contributor Katharina.
