Dr. Filgueira joined Houston Methodist in 2011 as a postdoctoral student under the direction of Dr. Anders Berkenstam and Dr. Paul Webb in collaboration with Dr. Jan-Ake Gustafsson. She focused on nuclear hormone receptors, specifically Estrogen Receptor beta and Liver X Receptor beta, and small molecule screening using a combination of direct binding and cell based assays. Dr. Filgueira is currently interested in finding alternative treatment approaches for physiological disorders through sustained release harnessing nanotechnological approaches.
