Item 7.01Regulation FD Disclosure

Diffusion Pharmaceuticals Inc. ("Diffusion," the "Company" or "we") is releasing a series of podcasts in which our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Officer discuss our clinical studies, our development plans, and certain other matters related to our business. The podcast series - entitled Fueling Life™ - is being made available on our website, www.diffusionpharma.com. We may also from time to time reproduce the contents of these podcasts, in whole or in part, and possibly with non-material modifications, in connection with our other public and media relations efforts.

These podcasts include express and implied forward-looking statements relating to the above-mentioned subject matter and certain other statements that are not matters of historical fact, including statements regarding our intentions, beliefs, projections, outlook, analyses, or expectations. We may, in some cases, use the foregoing terms or other words, such as "estimates," "anticipates," "plans," "intends," "may," "could," "might," "will," "should," or "approximately," that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes to identify these forward-looking statements. By their nature, forward-looking statements relate to events and circumstances that may or may not occur in the future or may occur on longer or shorter timelines than anticipated, and therefore inherently involve risks and uncertainties, including those discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each such forward-looking statement, due to these and other factors, known and unknown, actual results could differ materially from our intentions, beliefs, projections, outlook, analyses, or expectations expressed in any forward-looking statements expressed on these podcasts. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that any forward-looking statement made on these podcasts will prove to be accurate or that any such inaccuracy will not be material, and you should not place undue reliance on such statements. Unless the context requires otherwise, all forward-looking statements made on these podcasts are based on our beliefs and expectations as of, and speak only as of, the date of recording of the applicable episode.

In addition, the information discussed in these podcasts is summary information intended to be considered in the context of the other public announcements that we make from time to time, by press release, SEC filing, or otherwise. Diffusion undertakes no duty or obligation to publicly update or revise the information contained in these podcasts except as required by applicable law, although we may do so from time to time as we believe is warranted or appropriate. We make no admission or representation as to the materiality of any information in the podcasts or otherwise related thereto, including any information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K. All such information is furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of Section 18 of the Exchange Act unless we specifically incorporate it by reference in a document filed under the Exchange Act, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as previously set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
