Support provided by the University of Arizona Mathematics Department, and the National Science Foundation, NSF-DMS 134901 Aims: The main goal of this conference is to foster interaction between researchers in integrable nonlinear partial differential equations and researchers working in random matrix theory and combinatorics. This will be accomplished by lectures in the morning, and then dividing into working groups in the afternoons. We are planning a conference with the main participants being younger researchers, with a few more senior researchers scattered in for good measure.

A second aspect, and one that will be celebrated in the evenings, is the 60th birthday of Nicholas Ercolani, who is always a strong advocate for research at the boundary between diverse areas of mathematics such as these.
