ATLANTA, GA, Dec. 18, 2017 --

GeoVax Labs, Inc. (OTCQB: GOVX), a biotechnology company developing human vaccines, announced today that it is scheduling investor and corporate partnering meetings during the J.P. Morgan 36^th Annual Healthcare Conference, to be held in San Francisco on January 8-11, 2018.

Senior management of GeoVax will be available for one-on-one meetings with investment professionals and business development representatives from the life sciences industry. The Company will provide an update on its vaccine development programs in the areas of HIV, Zika, Lassa fever, malaria, hepatitis B immunotherapy, and immuno-oncology.

Robert McNally, PhD, GeoVax’s President & CEO, commented, “We look forward to a full schedule during the upcoming conference as we seek collaborators, partners and investors to advance multiple programs toward human clinical trials. Our HIV clinical program continues to progress with NIH support, and we are building an impressive preclinical data set for our other pipeline programs, supporting the rationale for investment in additional clinical activities. Recognizing the importance of Asian markets and the longer-term thinking of Asian investors, we also intend to make a concerted effort to reach out to China-based investors and pharmaceutical companies who see the strategic value of a relationship with GeoVax.”
