At the ICF Research Branch, WHO FIC Collaborating Center (DIMDI), Institute for Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, Ludwig-Maximilian University in Munich, we seek a better understanding of disability through multidisciplinary research. We develop, evaluate, and disseminate tools and models of functioning and health for different groups of patients and settings. We strive for the promotion of health, the restoration of functioning and the prevention of disability by applying the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) of the World Health Organization.
