+💡 Highlights:
+
+- Orcid Linkage: If you didn't add your orcid account during account registration you can
+  catch up now by linking your orcid account in your user profiles
+- Simplify sample registration: Downloading the batch registration template can now be done within
+  the sample registration dialog
+  directly.
+- Simplify measurement registration: Specify the domain within the measurement registration dialog
+  directly download the domain
+  specific template
+- Optional measurement name: The measurement registration sheets for proteomics and genomics now
+  feature a column "measurement
+  name" to optionally store the internally assigned lab identifier
+- Raw data filtering: The registered datasets can now be filtered by their properties via a
+  dedicated search field
+- Download Urls for filtered raw data: Triggering the download of dataset URLS provides only the
+  URLs of the filtered dataset
