Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $151,748, $149,288, and $146,092, respectively. Future minimum lease payments total $156,545 in 2018. Other Commitments In the normal course of business, we may enter into various firm purchase commitments related to production and testing of our vaccine material, conduct of clinical trials, and other research-related act ivities.
