Jocelyn Bell Burnell (ur. jako Susan Jocelyn Bell 15 lipca 1943 w Belfaście albo w Lurgan) – brytyjska astrofizyczka, znana z badań pulsarów. Jako doktorantka, pracująca pod kierunkiem Antony’ego Hewisha, Jocelyn Bell zaobserwowała pulsary jako pierwsza w historii. Za to odkrycie Hewish (wraz z Martinem Ryle’em) otrzymał w 1974 roku Nagrodę Nobla w dziedzinie fizyki; jej samej Nagrody Nobla nie przyznano. Otrzymała za to Medal Copleya od Towarzystwa Królewskiego w Londynie (ang. Royal Society of London) – jako druga kobieta w historii tej nagrody (2021).
