Lisa Blaskey, PhD, is a pediatric neuropsychologist in the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, the Center for Autism Research (CAR), the Department of Radiology, and the Autism Integrated Care Program at CHOP. Dr. Blaskey received her PhD in clinical psychology from Michigan State University. She completed her postdoctoral fellowship in clinical neuropsychology at the Harvard-Partners Consortium in Clinical Neuropsychology at Massachusetts General Hospital/Brigham and Women's Hospital/Harvard Medical School.

Dr. Blaskey designs diagnostic and neurocognitive phenotyping batteries for studies within the Lurie Family Foundations MEG Imaging Center, were she is a co-investigator for studies exploring electrophysiological and neurocognitive underpinnings of autism spectrum disorder.

She has also served as a co-investigator and evaluator on large scale, multisite network studies, including projects funded by the NIH, CDC, and Simons Foundation. Her clinical and research interests include neurocognitive underpinnings of autism spectrum disorders, neuropsychological assessment, and mechanisms of comorbidity in neurodevelopmental disorders.

In addition to her autism work, Dr. Blaskey collaborates on studies exploring a variety of neurological and genetic conditions (e.g., concussion, Huntington’s Disease, and XYY syndrome). In her clinical practice, Dr. Blaskey evaluates children with complex medical and neurological conditions in the Neuropsychology and Assessment Service of CHOP’s Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences.
