Dr. Elisabeth Marsh's clinical interest is in cerebrovascular neurology, and her clinical research focuses on stroke outcomes and recovery. Her clinical responsibilities include attending on the inpatient Stroke Service at the Johns Hopkins Hospital and inpatient Neurology Service at the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center. In 2014, Dr. Marsh was named the Medical Director of the Comprehensive Stroke Program at the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center. She implemented the Bayview Stroke Intervention Clinic (BaSIC), a multi-disciplinary follow-up clinic designed to promote patient follow-up, reduce hospital readmission rates, and enhance post-stroke recovery. Her current focus is on the under-reported neurologic deficits (particularly with respect to depression, fatigue, and cognition) that significantly impair long-term functional outcome and patient satisfaction, despite scores on metrics such as the NIH stroke scale that indicate a “good recovery”. She leads a team of vascular neurologists, emergency medicine physicians, neurosurgeons, interventional neuroradiologists, neurointensivists, and rehabilitation specialists, who work together to provide the highest level of care to all stroke patients, resulting in better functional outcomes and improved quality of life. She is also interested in the treatment of acute stroke and intracranial hemorrhage. Her past work has included evaluation of the predictors of hemorrhagic transformation following ischemic stroke. Using multivariable regression, she created a model that predicts rate of hemorrhagic transformation in patients with acute stroke on anticoagulation, the Hemorrhage Risk Stratification (HeRS) score. The tool is available for free through Apple by searching 'Johns Hopkins HeRS score' in the App Store. Dr. Marsh is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Transient Global Amnesia. Her top areas of expertise are Stroke, Apoplexy, Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), Thrombectomy, and Gastrostomy.

Dr. Bhargava developed an interest in immunology early in medical school at the Christian Medical College in Vellore, India. He then completed his neurology training at the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine and while there began research in the field of multiple sclerosis (MS). Following his neurology training he completed a 3-year fellowship at the Johns Hopkins University in neuroimmunology and neurological infections focusing on MS clinical care and research. His fellowship training was supported by a Sylvia Lawry physician fellowship award from the National MS Society. His main research interests include studying the role of inflammation in the meninges in progression of MS disease. He is currently involved in a trial testing the utility of injecting a drug called rituximab into the spinal fluid in patients with progressive MS. He is also developing an animal model of the process of meningeal inflammation to test other potential treatments. This work is supported by awards from the National MS Society, Race to Erase MS and the American Academy of Neurology. He is also actively involved in studying the role of measuring lipids and small molecule metabolites in serum and plasma to help identify new biomarkers for improved diagnosis and prognosis of the disease.
