During the First World War , he was 1915-1918 assistant at the Department of Zoology of the Moscow Higher Courses for Women . After the October Revolution he gave a lecture on experimental biology in 1918 at the Schanyawski People's University and in 1919 at the MGU. In the spring he was sent with an expedition to New Ascania , where he got into the fighting zone of the civil war . He went to the Crimea and got a teaching position at the Tauride University in Simferopol . He carried out scientific research, the results of which he later published.

In 1927, Sawadowski's laboratory was incorporated into the All Union Institute for Animal Breeding (WISch). There Sawadowski developed methods to increase the fertility of farm animals through the use of hormone preparations .

From 1927 Sawadowski taught at the chair for developmental dynamics of the biological faculty of the MGU. In 1935 he was elected a full member of the Soviet Academy of Agricultural Sciences. During the German-Soviet War he was evacuated from Alma-Ata from 1941 to 1943 , where he continued experimental studies on multiple reproduction.

In 1944 Zavadovsky received the Order of the Red Labor Banner for his teaching activities . In 1946 he received the Stalin Prize for his method of multiple reproduction . In 1948 at the August meeting of the Soviet Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the followers of Lysenkoism classical genetics criticized devastating Zavadovsky was with his younger brother Boris Mikhailovich Zavadovsky dismissed and other representatives of classical genetics, his Department of Developmental Dynamics was dissolved, and its method multiple reproduction was prohibited. After Stalin's death in 1954, the WISch opened the Developmental Physiology Laboratory , where Zavadovsky worked until his death.
