Cellarity`s mission is to fundamentally transform the way medicines are created through the development of the first full stack digital cell. Founded by Flagship Pioneering in 2017, Cellarity has developed unique capabilities combining high-resolution data, single cell technologies, and machine learning to encode biology, model interventions, and purposefully design breakthrough medicines. By focusing on the cellular changes that underlie disease instead of a single target, Cellarity`s approach uncovers new biology and treatments and is applicable to a vast array of disease areas. The company currently has programs underway in metabolic disease, hematology, immuno-oncology, and respiratory disease. The company has raised $123 million as part of a Series B funding round with 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.
At Prevail Therapeutics, we are pioneering innovative therapies that aim to cure neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson`s disease. Our mission is to translate breakthrough advances in human genetics and gene therapy technology into life-changing medicines that slow, stop and reverse the neurodegenerative process. Our novel gene therapies target patients with urgent unmet needs, where there are currently no available therapies to change the progressive course of their diseases. Prevail was formed in 2017, and as an emerging biotechnology company, we are growing rapidly. We are building a team of dedicated, creative and talented individuals who share our passion for serving patients with neurodegenerative diseases. We pride ourselves on following great science, and we value collaboration, integrity and agility. We are based in the Alexandria Center for Life Science in New York City.
