Hippocampus, Olfactory memory, DetectionAbstract
The main objective of this research is to assess the importance of hippocampal stimulation in the detection of narcotics by police sniffer dogs during operations in complex areas, by analyzing canine olfactory memory for use by police. To achieve this, qualitative research was employed through a bibliographic review of articles, books, and journals related to the thematic area under study. The aim is to identify the significance of dogs' olfactory memory in narcotics search operations. Bibliographic results indicate that research on the canine hippocampus has proven valuable in training and, consequently, in police operations for narcotics searches, as the hippocampus serves as an important marker of canine olfactory memory when detecting volatile narcotics compounds.
