Dr. Mona Bahouth is an Assistant Professor of Neurology at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. She specializes in patient-centered approaches to enhancing early stroke recovery including innovative solutions to optimizing systems of care in the early stroke recovery period.

Dr. Krakauer is currently John C. Malone Professor of Neurology, Neuroscience, and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, and Director of the Brain, Learning, Animation, and Movement Lab (www.BLAM-lab.org) at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. His areas of research interest are:(1) Experimental and computational studies of motor control and motor learning in humans (2) Tracking long-term motor skill learning and its relation to higher cognitive processes such as decision-making. (3) Prediction of motor recovery after stroke (4) Mechanisms of spontaneous motor recovery after stroke in humans and in mouse models (5) New neuro-rehabilitation approaches for patients in the first 3 months after stroke. Dr. Krakauer’s book, “Broken Movement: The Neurobiology of Motor Recovery after Stroke” was published by the MIT Press in 2017.

Stroke, Dementia, Motor Learning & Brain Recovery: The Mystery of the Human Brain (Video on Demand)

With an estimated 47 million individuals living with dementia world-wide, geriatrician Esther Oh, M.D., Ph.D., will review the latest evidence suggesting what we can do to change the course of cognitive decline and prevent dementia. Neurologist Mona Bahouth, M.D., Ph.D., will discuss new research finding a relationship between urinary tract infections and stroke and neurologist John Krakauer, M.D., Ph.D., will detail research about motor learning and brain repair at Johns Hopkins.
