Charles F. Reynolds III, M.D.

Dr. Reynolds' research focus is in geriatric psychiatry with a particular emphasis on depression. His studies emphasize prevention of depression, treatment of depression in patients with high-risk behaviors or mood disorders, and removal of barriers to depression treatment in community settings. He also works in the areas of sleep research, and one current project explores the effect of sleep education and restriction of bed time to measure the effect on sleep continuity and depth.
