Joachim Frank (lahir 12 September 1940) ialah seorang ahli biofizik Amerika kelahiran Jerman di Universiti Columbia dan seorang pemenang Hadiah Nobel. Beliau dianggap sebagai pengasas mikroskopi elektron tunggal-zarah (cryo-EM), yang mana beliau berkongsi Hadiah Nobel dalam Kimia pada tahun 2017 bersama Jacques Dubochet dan Richard Henderson.^[2] Beliau juga telah memberikan sumbangan penting kepada struktur dan fungsi ribosom daripada bakteria dan eukariota.
