A lecturer is giving a presentation in a modern classroom with large windows. He is gesturing with his hands while speaking to an audience of students seated in tiered rows. The audience, consisting mostly of young adults, is attentively listening, some with laptops open.

Jonathan Katz stands in a classroom beside a large screen, which displays the title slide of a presentation titled "Round-Optimal, Fully Secure Distributed Key Generation." The slide also states that the work was done at Dfns Labs. He is attentively looking towards the audience.
