He received his Ph.D. (Candidate of Science) from the Steklov Institute of Mathematics in 1986 under Nikolai Nikolski with thesis Metric properties of harmonic measure (title translated from Russian).

In 2020, he was awarded the Rolf Schock Prize, "for his significant contributions to complex analysis and its applications to mathematical physics".

[3] His doctoral students include the Fields medallist Stanislav Smirnov, Alexei Poltoratski and Dapeng Zhan [de].

[5][6] Makarov has also studied diffusion-limited aggregation which describes crystal growth in two dimensions with Lennart Carleson and Beurling-Malliavin theory with his former student Alexei Poltoratski.
