The competition for the title of Best Hair in Biopharma is heating up, after Celgene's Vice President of Investor Relations Patrick Flanigan has been named as a contender for the title this week.

Analyst Mark Schoenebaum, a biotech and pharmaceuticals analyst and medical doctor for ISI Group, wrote in a note this week that Flanigan’s chances are “increasingly competitive with 's John Elicker and 's Ron Cohen.

“[His hair] remains ‘game show perfect,’" said Schoenebaum, who added that Flanigan still has a way to go before heading to the top of the list. “[Wall] Street needs to see how quickly he grays over the next few years before raising probability of winning,” said Schoenebaum.
