Summary
Anatoly Zavyalov is a PhD student and research intern specializing in differential privacy and differentially private graph algorithms, currently based at Boston University and the Max Planck Institute for Security and Privacy. With 11 years of technical experience and an undergraduate background in mathematics, computer science, and physics from the University of Toronto, he combines rigorous theoretical work with practical systems building. He has a track record of independent full-stack development—singlehandedly creating SUPREM.IO, an online multiplayer arena that attracted large traffic and a community of 850+ players—showing his ability to move from research to production. Past research spans theorem-proving, program verification, and radio astronomy instrumentation software, reflecting a breadth across theory and applied tooling. Outside academia he’s a long-time hobbyist game developer and describes himself wryly in Russian as a “leading developer, irresponsible sysadmin,” hinting at a playful, hands-on approach to complex projects.
