Tao,

Cuffdiff output is tabular data, and hence any statistical tool that supports 
tabular data can be used to analyze/visualize Cuffdiff outputs. In Galaxy, 
using tools in the categories Statistics and Graph/Display Data should enable 
you to visualize basic aspects of your data.

Good luck,
J.
