Previously, between 2018 and 2020, she worked as a biostatistician in the Department of Environmental Health at Columbia University. Arce's research work focuses on epidemiological studies of the impact of environmental exposures on human health, including the identification of potential intermediate mechanisms such as epigenetic deregulation, with a main focus on cardiovascular disease and cognitive decline. Her research also focuses on causal inference methods such as mediation, competing risks, large-dimensional data analysis, longitudinal data analysis, and target trial emulation.

Her research has been published in journals such as JAMA Cardiology, JAMA Network Open, Circulation, International Journal of Epidemiology, or Environmental Health Perspectives. Arce is co-founder and editor of the scientific communication medium Te lo dice una científica, awarded at the Masorange Journalism and Sustainability Communication Awards.
