There are quite a few CS BSc who get a PhD in neuroSCIENCE, at least in our
program. See http://www.life.umd.edu/NACS/
The field of computational neuroscience is still in its infancy (my opinion)
and people who work on the quantification of neuroscience tend to have very
different backgrounds, but most of them are physicists, E engineers,
computer scientists, and the like. 
Other programs in neuroscience are actually directly attached to CS
deparmtents, such as Carnegie, http://www.cnbc.cmu.edu/
