Frank James Dixon (March 9,[1] 1920 – February 8, 2008) was an biomedical researcher, best known for his research into diseases of the immune system that can damage other organs of the body.[2] Dixon was also noted for having developed techniques involving trace iodines to study proteins.[2]

Born in St. Paul, Dixon received his bachelor's degree and M.D. from the University of Minnesota.[3] He joined the United States Navy in 1943, after completing his M.D. Dixon was a co-founder and director of the Scripps Research Institute in San Diego.[4]

In 1981, Dixon became a founding member of the World Cultural Council.[5]
