I've just came back from a two days' trip in Firenze. On the first day we had a long (4.30 hours) meeting on some interesting research topics, such as cellular aging and about oxidative damage in yeast.

On the second day I attended part of a workshop on pathway analysis and related topics. Many speakers were from the [NuGO project](http://www.nugo.org/everyone) funded by the European Community, but the talks were still quite general. Several tools were presented, some look interesting (EU.GENE) while others seem less useful at least for a research environment (mostly commercial software, but I think I'll go into more detail in a separate entry).

Overall, the subject matter of pathway analysis and related topics seems an interesting idea for my PhD thesis. I think I'll go and start studying in detail from next week.
