Yes you can work as a data scientist after pursuing a course in Bioinformatics. Besides the core skills used by a data scientist, one thing to adapt to is the domain-specific terminology, concepts and certain processes exclusive to biological data.
The catch is - you'll still be dealing with data. You'll be studying the data and exemplifying findings just as you would in any other field. Biological data might seem comparatively sensitive and complex.
