Back from the 52nd Scientific Meeting of the Italian Statistical Society, still ongoing in Bari, where yesterday we had a board meeting of AISP and an intermediate meeting of the EAGLES project. Good scientific sessions and nice and funny time with colleagues and friends.

I just returned from three days in the beautiful Venice for the Age-It General Meeting. I presented a work on "Triple standards of aging in Europe" (with Gessica Vella and Francesco C. Billari), in which we explore the link between gender and education on ageism and double standard.
