Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jeffrey M. Pyne is a Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) College of Medicine. His research focuses on the implementation and effectiveness of mental health interventions, particularly within primary care settings and through telemedicine. Pyne has received funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for two pilot studies: one investigating collaboration between mental health clinicians and chaplains (MC3), and another exploring the implementation of treatments for moral injury syndrome using a hybrid Type 2 design.

His work has addressed the application of telemedicine for conditions such as depression and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), often in rural or underserved communities. Pyne has also examined the functional impact and health utility of anxiety disorders in primary care outpatients. He has published extensively on these topics, with a total of 186 publications and over 12,000 citations, reflected in his h-index of 42. He is recognized as a high-impact researcher and federal grant principal investigator. Pyne collaborates with several researchers at UAMS, including Brandon J. Griffin and Marcela C. Weber, and maintains an active lab website.
