Gonda Stallinga is a Senior Researcher at the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG), University of Groningen, specializing in the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework. Her work bridges nursing practice, health services research, and person-centered care with significant contributions to chronic disease management and disability rehabilitation.
Her research focuses on implementing ICF in clinical settings through learning communities of practice, digitizing functioning assessment (functionomics), and validating condition-specific ICF core sets. She investigates how healthcare professionals integrate functioning metrics into daily practice, particularly for chronic conditions, emphasizing collaborative knowledge exchange and patient-centered outcomes. Recent work demonstrates her leadership in operationalizing digital health solutions for personalized care.
Publications reveal a clear trajectory toward integrating ICF with digital health infrastructure and practical clinical applications, with increasing emphasis on nurse-led validation studies and cross-disciplinary implementation frameworks. Her 2024 functionomics paper represents a paradigm shift toward data-driven functioning assessment.
