Jason T. Maynes

Jason T. Maynes is a Clinical Professor in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Toronto. His research integrates clinical training in pediatrics and anesthesiology with biophysical methods to address critical questions in mitochondrial dynamics, anesthetic safety, and cardiac function.

• Laboratory focuses on anaesthetic off-target effects and mitochondrial dysfunction in pediatric patients
• Develops high-content imaging techniques for disease modeling
• Investigates molecular mechanisms of cardiac contractility

Lab methodologies include structural biology (X-ray crystallography, NMR), stem cell models, robotics, and machine learning-based image analysis. He teaches core courses in medical biochemistry and collaborates with clinicians, epidemiologists, and engineers across 40+ partnerships.
