John Isaiah Brauman (born September 7, 1937) is an American chemist.

Biography

John Brauman was born in Pittsburgh on September 7, 1937. Brauman graduated from Taylor Allderdice High School in 1955. He obtained a bachelor's degree in 1959 from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a Ph.D. from University of California at Berkeley in 1963. He is married to Sharon K Brauman, also a chemist. Their daughter, Kate Brauman is the lead scientist for the Global Water Initiative at the University of Minnesota's Institute on the Environment.

On October 29, 2003 George W. Bush awarded the National Medal of Science to John Brauman, who at that time was the J.G. Jackson and C.J. Wood Professor of Chemistry at Stanford University. His research there concerns how molecules react and the factors that determine the rates and products of chemical reactions. The main areas of research involve the spectroscopy, photochemistry, reaction dynamics, and reaction mechanisms of ions in the gas phase.
