Lissauer received a PhD in mathematics from the University of California, Berkeley in 1982.

Prior to joining NASA, Lissauer was an associate professor (September 1993 – August 1996) and assistant professor (June 1987 – August 1993) at Stony Brook University. Earlier, he served as a visiting researcher at the University of California, Santa Barbara (July 1985 – June 1987) and as an assistant research astronomer at the University of California, Berkeley (January–July 1985).

French, he also discovered Hippocamp, a small satellite of Neptune. In 2014, he was given the H. Julian Allen Award for his paper "Models of Jupiter's growth incorporating thermal and hydrodynamic constraints".[1] His previous awards include the Harold C. Urey Prize from Division of Planetary Sciences of the American Astronomical Society (AAS), the Chambliss Writing Prize from the AAS and a NASA Honor Award for Exceptional Scientific Achievement.

He was elected a Legacy Fellow of the American Astronomical I Society in 2020.[2]
