Yes and no. There are many different kinds of scientists, and not all of them are engaged in cloning. As for the scientists who do the kind of research where cloning occurs, they generally work with genes and cells. The purpose of making a copy (a clone) of a gene or a cell is to develop procedures that can lead to cures for various diseases. It should be noted that movies and TV shows about human cloning are fictional. Scientists are not engaged in cloning human beings, but rather, in learning more about diseases that have a genetic origin, creating stem cells that could cure those diseases, etc.
