Boston University's position was already stated in the DailyMail article.

Quote from the DailyMail:

The University of Boston refuted that the experiments are gain of function, adding that the research was reviewed and approved by the Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) and the Boston Public Health Commission.

A spokesperson said: 'This research mirrors and reinforces the findings of other, similar research performed by other organizations.

'Ultimately, this research will provide a public benefit by leading to better, targeted therapeutic interventions to help fight against future pandemics.'

Daily Mail was reporting that:

1. This COVID research was being done at this facility.
2. Dr. Richard Ebright, a chemist at Rutgers University, said the research is a clear example of gain of function research.

NIH launches an investigation into whether Boston University COVID experiments should have triggered a review

NIH, the organization, cited in the paper as funding for the research, is now denying they gave funds for this research. They claim they only provided funding for the tools and platform. This thing is a hot potato, and nobody wants to touch it.
