Bomb Dog Research, Odor Purity, and Research Update with Dr. Lauryn DeGreeff, Dr. Michele Maughan and Jenna Gadberry
Manage episode 404807384 series 3319460
What to listen for:
Our hosts Robin Greubel and Stacy Barnett dive headfirst into the high-stakes world of canine explosive detection with an esteemed panel of experts, Dr. Lauryn DeGreeff, Dr. Michele Maughan, and Jenna Gadberry. As they dissect the complexities of non-detonable canine training aids, you'll get a rare behind-the-scenes look at the intricate dance of odor chemistry and the safety measures paramount in training with both traditional and peroxide-based explosives. Safety for furry detectives and their handlers leads the charge in the discussion, as they navigate the laboratory and field labyrinth to analyze the effectiveness of different training aids.
Ever pondered how a detection dog's nose works like a sophisticated bio-sensor, dissecting the world's odors? Our hosts and guests tackle the unfortunate issue of variability in training aids. With insights from Dr. Nathan Hall, they unravel the scent detection conundrum, especially when dealing with volatile compounds. Drawing from real-world applications and scientific scrutiny, this episode uncovers the essential need for multifaceted exposure and stringent training to enhance the fidelity of our four-legged bomb detectors.
