A branch group with unsolvable conjugacy problem

We prove that every finitely generated residually finite group $G$ can be embedded in a finitely generated branch group $\mathrm{\Gamma }$ such that two elements in $G$ are conjugate in $G$ if and only if they are conjugate in $\mathrm{\Gamma }$. As an application we construct a finitely generated branch group with solvable word problem and unsolvable conjugacy problem and thereby answer a question of Bartholdi, Grigorchuk, and Šunik.
