Anathema was presented by SexLab at the scientific meeting of the Portuguese Society of Clinical Sexology. Ana Luísa Quinta Gomes presented Anathema at a round table on empirically validated interventions in Portugal and there were very good reactions to the project.

To complement the joy we had of seeing our project attract such interest, the poster entitled ‘Pilot study to evaluate acceptability, feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an intervention programme to promote sexual health among colorectal cancer survivors’ received an honourable mention for being one of the best three posters on show.
