Julius Axelrod (30 Mei 1912 - 29 Disember 2004)[1] ialah ahli biokimia Amerika. Beliau memenangi sebahagian daripada Hadiah Nobel dalam Fisiologi atau Perubatan pada tahun 1970 bersama dengan Bernard Katz dan Ulf von Euler.[2][3][4][5] Jawatankuasa Nobel memuliakan untuk kerja-kerja pada pengeluaran katekolamin neurotransmiter, kelas bahan kimia dalam otak yang termasuk adrenalin, norepinefrin, dan, seperti yang kemudian ditemui, dopamina. Axelrod juga membuat sumbangan besar kepada pemahaman kelenjar pineal dan bagaimana ia dikawal semasa kitaran tidur.[6][7][8]
