The round included contributions from funds and accounts managed by BlackRock, The Baupost Group, Banque Pictet on behalf of their clients and eight other investors alongside Flagship Pioneering.

Founded in 2017 within Flagship Labs, Cellarity is designing medicines against the cell as opposed to a single molecular target.
