Out of all the national/ethnic mutation databases (NEMDBs), FINDbase has the most content and since all the entries are collected from various populations worldwide, it is seen as a great resource for population-specific information.{{Cite book|title = Genetic Databases in Pharmacogenomics: The Frequency of Inherited Disorders Database (FINDbase) - Springer|journal = |volume = 1015|pages = 321–336|publisher = Humana Press|date = 2013-01-01|isbn = 978-1-62703-434-0|series = Methods in Molecular Biology|doi = 10.1007/978-1-62703-435-7_21|pmid = 23824866|editor-first = Federico|editor-last = Innocenti|editor-first2 = Ron H.
