I will give an overview of connections between Random Matrix TheoryandNumber Theory, in particular connections with the theory of the Riemann zeta-function and zeta functions defined in function fields. I will then discuss recent developments in which integrability plays an important role. These include the statistics of extreme values and connections with the theory of log-correlated Gaussian fields.
