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.
