Understanding and improving cardiovascular health, particularly among historically marginalized groups.
Dr. Cené has conducted observational studies and clinical trials to understand and reduce cardiovascular risk in marginalized populations. Her research highlights how psychosocial and behavioral factors contribute to health outcomes, such as medication adherence, particularly among African American populations. Her work has also focused on designing and testing literacy sensitive interventions to improve health outcomes among individuals with heart failure.

This body of work explores how social and structural factors—including social isolation, social capital (i.e., resources available through social relationships) and implicit bias—shape health outcomes and drive inequities. By examining diverse conditions and populations, the research highlights pathways through which social determinants and systemic inequities contribute to cardiovascular disease, HIV risk, and healthcare delivery, offering insights for more equitable health interventions.

The following work explores how involving patients and families in care improves communication, chronic disease management, and health outcomes. Studies highlight the value of family presence during medical visits, especially for heart failure patients, and underscore the role of engagement strategies tailored to cultural and community contexts.
