È anche ricercatore senior al The Mountain Institute, West Virginia, visiting professor all'Universidad Católica de Salta, Argentina, e professore onorario dell'Università Cattolica, Arequipa, in Perù.
Reinhard è famoso per le sue scoperte sulle mummie Inca, tra cui la mummia Juanita e i congelati sacrifici sulle vette delle Ande in Perù e in Argentina.
