Lisle holds a PhD in Astrophysics from the University of Colorado Boulder, where his research focused on solar dynamics using NASA's Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO). His dissertation, "Probing the Dynamics of Solar Supergranulation and its Interaction with Magnetism," contributed to peer-reviewed scientific literature on solar convection. He earned his undergraduate degrees in physics and astronomy from Ohio Wesleyan University, graduating summa cum laude with additional studies in mathematics.
Currently serving as the Director of Research at the Institute for Creation Research, Lisle previously worked as the Planetarium Director for the Creation Museum in Kentucky. He is a sought-after speaker on topics ranging from distant starlight and relativity to apologetics and dinosaurs, bridging scientific inquiry with creationist thought.
