There's a great wealth of technical material in the scientific literature and on the internet that can be useful to scientists interested in LISA. These are good places to begin from.
LISA is a collaborative project between ESA and NASA. This page outlines LISA science, the role of LISA within the ESA science program, and the collaboration between the two agencies.

LISA Pathfinder is the dedicated technology demonstrator for LISA,
and will perform the first in-flight test of gravitational-wave detection metrology. On this website, find a LISA Pathfinder overview,
mission documents, presentations, images, and more.

The LIST is the primary scientific coordinating body and advisory committee to ESA and NASA for the LISA mission. Its purpose is to provide input and guidance during the formulation phase that can be used to help ensure the maximum scientific return from the mission. On this website, find mission science documents (such as the LISA Science Case document) and whitepapers, information about the LIST and its meetings, and outreach materials.

The LISC is an informal network of researchers, maintained by the LISA International Science Team for the purpose of exchanging information with the wider scientific community. In this website, find news, an introduction to LISA science, useful science and technology articles, and outreach materials. You may also join the LISC mailing list to receive LISA news and updates.

In 2007, the National Research Council was charged with assessing the five proposed NASA Beyond Einstein missions (including LISA), to recommend which should be developed and launched first, and to provide input for future NASA decisions and for the 2010 Astronomy and Astrophysics Decadal Survey. This report gave LISA the highest scientific ranking in the Beyond Einstein program. This website provides access to the final report.
