There are limited exceptions to the use of Cascade. For example, the need to place web content behind a log-in will be handled within UNMC's branded instance of WordPress. Rarely, the need for research functionality that can't be provided within Cascade will warrant another environment. In these cases, Strategic Communications will refer requests to and collaborate with the UNMC Research IT Office.<br />
