The week-long Atlanta Science Festival is currently in full swing, offering interactive events and educational experiences for all ages. One event for adults, entitled 'The Science of Sin,'  uses the Seven Deadly Sins to present the latest scientific research associated with each sin. Seven researchers and scientists will present their findings and hold discussions with attendees.

"It's critical that we understand the biology of human nature, and sins are a part of our nature. But actually, what we study is ... the motivational aspect of these different kinds of behaviors," Larry Young on the benefits of understanding the interaction between 'sin' and science.

We talk to Emory University’s Larry Young about the seduction of Lust and Sarah Brosnan of Georgia State University about the allure of Envy.

Catch Larry, Sarah and five more experts at the 'Science of Sin' event on Thursday (the 24th) at Fernbank Science Center. The presentations will begin at 6:30 PM
