Gunilla Björling är  professor i Hälsa och vårdvetenskap och Chef för Avdelningen för omvårdnad (AFO), Hälsohögskolan, Jönköping University Hon är också professor i vårdvetenskap vid Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College i Tanzania med en gedigen erfarenhet av att arbeta inom forskning  och undervisning. Gunilla är medicine doktor med inriktning mot anestesi- och intensivvård och omvårdnad från Karolinska Institutet och har sin kliniska anknytning till Södertälje sjukhus i Region Stockholm.
Hennes forskningsområde fokuserar bl a på hur olika medicintekniska produkter som används inom sjukvården påverkar patienten. Detta inkluderar hur materialet i de medicintekniska produkterna påverkas vid pateintanvändning, korrelationen med komplikationer och infektion, samt hur det påverkar patientens livskvalitet. Förståelsen för det material i medicintekniska produkter som faktiskt förs in i kroppen och hur det påverkar den person som lever med produkten är inte alltid tydlig för dem som arbetar inom sjukvårdsindustrin, och inte heller för de företag som tillverkar produkterna. Det är lätt att stigmatisera patienten på grund av deras sjukdom eller behov, och det är oerhört viktigt att närma sig patienten med öppna ögon och tänka bortom sjukdomen. Forskargruppens arbete, med fokus på material och patientcentrerad vård inom akutsjukvård, har varit mycket uppskattat på grund av dess innovativa och tvärvetenskapliga tillvägagångssätt.
