These models can be used to guide public health research and priorities, and they can aid in the development of optimal cancer control strategies.

Cervical Cancer Models focus on human papillomavirus (HPV) and the natural history of the disease, the impact of screening, the comparative effectiveness of HPV vaccination and screening strategies, and approaches to reduce cervical cancer disparities. Colorectal Cancer Models focus on the natural history of the disease and the impact of interventions, including targeted screening, on mortality. Esophageal Cancer Models focus on evaluating the potential of new screening technologies, prevention methods, genomic and others biomarkers, and clinical prediction tools. Lung Cancer Models focus on tobacco control policies, computed tomography (CT) screening, and investigation of the synergistic impacts of those strategies. Prostate Cancer Models focus on investigating risk-based screening and treatment strategies and approaches for reducing racial disparities.
