• Data Submission--Data in caMOD are extracted from the public scientific literature by curators or they are directly submitted by scientists.
• Search--Users can retrieve among others information about the making of models, their genetic descriptions, histopathology, images, microarray data, and therapeutic trials in which the models were used.
• System Function Administration--The Admin function provides services for user registration, review of submitted models and database management.
