Sergei Anatolievich Gavrilov (Russian: Серге́й Анато́льевич Гаври́лов; born 27 January 1966) is a Russian politician who is a Deputy of the State Duma representing the Communist Party of the Russian Federation.[1][2] He was born in Tula, during the time period of the Soviet Union; and would go on to receive a Candidate of Science in Economics, considered a PhD equivalent, from Moscow State University in 1989.[3]

On 18 September 2016, he was elected as a deputy of the 7th State Duma as a member of the Communist Party.[3]

He is one of the 324 members of the State Duma that the United States Department of the Treasury sanctioned on 24 March 2022 in response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[4]
