Streamlining research communication at the departmental level with integrated governance.
Initial Creation: University staff must first create the department within the institutional dashboard and send an invitation link to the designated Department Admin.
Building Your Team: Additional department staff can be added in two ways:
Publishing capability is a privilege granted by University Staff through the "Can Publish" selector.
Department Editors have full authority to push departmental and lab news live to the platform.
Department Editors review drafts and submit to University staff for final publication.
Research Labs operate within a supervised workflow to ensure institutional accuracy:
Note: Labs always send content to their parent department or the university. If the department lacks publishing permissions, the content must be submitted by the department to university staff for final approval.
