About

Ville Jansson, PhD

Private investor, physicist, science & technology enthusiast.

I am a self-sufficient private investor with a background as a researcher in computational materials science. I invest mainly in shares of public companies with the aim of creating a portfolio with a managed risk and maximized growth over several years. I am keenly following the financial and economical news in order to understand how the world is evolving.

My research has been concentrated on developing Kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulation models for atomic diffusion in materials. Most of my simulations have been done with my own opensource KMC code Kimocs. I have been using Linux and other open-source software for nearly twenty years and I am also interested in the open-access movement that is trying to radically change how academic papers are published.

For more information about me, my research or Kimocs, see my homepage.
