As of January 1, 2011, Prof. Braun accepted an invitation to be an Executive Associate Editor for the Journal of Engineering Mathematics (JEM) for an initial three-year term. The JEM web site states that the journal "promotes the application of mathematics to physical problems particularly in the general area of engineering science. It also emphasizes the intrinsic unity, through mathematics, of the fundamental problems of applied and engineering science." He will be working with JEM's new Editors-in-Chief Tom Witelski (Duke) and Stephen Wilson (Strathclyde).
