Description
After an open call in February by ESA, and shortly thereafter by NASA, the LISA Science Team was announced in July this summer. The European selection consisted of 11 representatives from ESA member states, as well as a representative from the LISA consortium, 6 NASA-selected members, and project scientists from both NASA and LISA. The team acts as a focus for the interests of the scientific community in LISA, geared towards maximising the scientific returns of the mission. I will give a short overview and status update of the team and its objectives.
