I am a grad student in Bioinformatics, and I have my BS in Biology. I'd say that the field is limited by computer science, not biology. Especially in the high-throughput sequencing field. Currently, the acceleration of DNA sequencing data production is out-pacing Moore's law. It costs more to analyze DNA sequences than to generate them. Also, for some reason, CS people don't seem to be that attracted to bioinformatics. So, I'd suggest stating focused on CS and Statistics. The biology that you would need to learn in order to understand current hard problems is easy to pick up. Have you looked at Counsyl?
