Korana Burke, Lecturer in Mathematics at University of California Davis, will take over as Education/Teaching Section Editor. We thank Anne Catla (Wofford), Jim Bagrow (Vermont), and Erik Martens (Lund) for their years of work on this section. Korana is a veteran of SIAM editorial work, already having served for several years as a senior editor of DSWeb and SIAM News. She has a particular passion for amplifying young and underrepresented voices in dynamical systems and is an active supporter of SIAM activities.

Hil Meijer, Associate Professor of Applied Analysis at the University of Twente has taken on the position of Software Section Editor. We thank Erik Martens (Lund) for his years of service in this position. Hil has extensive experience in curating mathematical software, especially as the current maintainer and tutorial editor of MatCont. He plans to considerably expand the collection of linked software repositories to DSWeb with an eye to modern usability and adaptability.

Alexandria Volkening, Assistant Professor of Mathematics at Purdue University, will take over as Media Gallery Section Editor. Thanks to Daniele Avitabile (VU Amsterdam) for his work on this section. In addition to having published well publicized research on pattern formation and contagion models in biology, Al has given a number of public outreach talks on the role of mathematical modeling in US election forecasting and describing zebrafish coat patterns. She has organized multiple workshops highlighting women in dynamical systems and organized mentoring and networking sessions for trainees at the SIADS meeting.

Jie Sun, Chief Researcher at Huawei Hong Kong Research Center, will assume the role of “About the Profession” Section Editor. We thank Takashi Nishikawa for his many years of service in this position and on DSWeb. Jie brings an important perspective to the DSWeb editorial board as an individual who has spent significant time as an academic (TT math faculty at Clarkson) as well as the last few years as part of the research section of Huawei, a multinational telecom company. As part of this role, he continues to tackle fundamental theoretical problems in nonlinear dynamics, network optimization, machine learning, and inverse problems.

As announced in January, Zack Kilpatrick (CU Boulder) and Jan Sieber (Exeter) will be the Magazine Chief Editors; Robby Marangell (Sydney) will be Portal Editor-in-Chief; James Haines (SIAM) will be Portal Administrator; Jim Meiss (CU Boulder) will still provide book reviews; and Mason Porter (UCLA) will serve as a Senior Editor and Twitter Admin.
