The paper deals with objections received from colleagues to the article “The problem of free will in the context of neuroscience research”. The author clarifies some aspects of that article. He emphasizes his thesis that the neuroscientific experiments do not prove the absence of the freedom of will in humans, even though it does not follow that free will exists necessarily. In author's opinion, the adequate scientific approach to the phenomenon of free will demands creating a new experimental paradigm, which can be developed in collaboration of scientists working in different research fields.
