Pranav Chandra is a pediatric ER physician at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. He has 89+ peer-reviewed publications, leads research for CHLA’s emergency division, and is the CHLA site PI for PECARN — the federally funded pediatric research network. He doesn’t have an institutional grants office. He signed up to Granted and typed two pieces of context: org name "children’s hospital," project title "hybrid type 2 pragmatic trial validating and implementing a clinical decision support tool." He gave Granted two URLs and answered a handful of triage questions. From that, he got back a complete NIH UG3/UH3 application: PECARN cooperative-agreement architecture, UG3 Go/No-Go milestones, a stepped wedge crossover schedule across 8 sites, co-PI structure naming Wash U as the tool-developer subcontract, and a budget structure naming the Utah Data Coordinating Center. Pranav taught Granted the upper-band shape of researcher mode: where triage depth ceilings need to lift, where enrichment carries the bio, and where the institutional handoff begins. The remaining placeholders — effort percentages, exact subcontract dollars — are the seam he marked on the roadmap.
