## Article Body
Annovis Bio, Inc. (NYSE: ANVS) (“Annovis” or the “Company”), a Phase 3 clinical-stage biotechnology company developing the investigational oral therapy, buntanetap, for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD), today announced that Maria Maccecchini, Ph.D., President and CEO, will present at Fierce Biotech Week 2026 taking place in Boston, May 12-14, 2026.

Presentation Details:

Title: "The Multi-Protein Reality of Alzheimer's Disease: What the Science Has Known for Decades and What the Field Has Yet to Accept"

Presenter: Maria Maccecchini, Ph.D., President and CEO

Date: Wednesday, May 13, 2026

Time: 1:40 PM - 2:05 PM

Location: Picasso 4&5

The presentation will trace the scientific foundation for understanding AD as a disease driven by multiple neurotoxic aggregating proteins and examine the historical gap between that evidence and the field's reliance on a single-protein approach. Dr. Maccecchini will make the case supporting the importance of the full spectrum of neurotoxic proteins – including amyloid, tau, alpha-synuclein, TDP-43, and more – in disease progression, which are not only backed by decades of scientific data but also represent a promising path forward for the AD drug development.

"Alzheimer's disease has never been a one-protein problem, and overreliance on amyloid as the sole driver of the disease has come at a cost, hindering progress for alternative therapeutic candidates," said Maria Maccecchini, Ph.D., President and CEO. "Annovis’ program is built exactly on the premise that simultaneous reduction of the overexpression of several aggregating proteins interrupts the toxic cascade and improves the health of nerve cells. Our lead drug buntanetap, a translational inhibitor of these proteins, has already shown meaningful clinical benefits supported by encouraging biomarker data, and is now in a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial."

The presentation will be followed by a Q&A discussion and is open to all participants.

Fierce Biotech Week 2026 brings together leaders across R&D, clinical development, business development, and communications to confront the industry's most pressing challenges, from capital strategy and pipeline advancement to partnership formation and commercialization. With more than 100 biotech CEOs and founders, over 500 companies, and 15 top global pharmaceutical organizations represented, the event is built for the leaders driving consequential decisions.
