XML and semistructured data in general. Check out the following URL:
http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/conf/webdb/webdb2000.html
If you want to know what is hot in database theory look at the CFP of ICDT (Internation Conference on Database Theory):
http://www.dcs.bbk.ac.uk/icdt2001/call.html
Some other conferences to keep an eye on:
SIGMOD/PODS: (Principles of Database Systems)
http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/conferences/sigmod2001/index.html
VLDB: (Very Large Databases)
http://www.dia.uniroma3.it/vldb2001/
Good luck with your research.
