If you are interested in what goes on in the university museum world you may want to take a look at the University Museums and Collections (UMAC) website, edited by Cornelia Weber. It has, among other things, a very useful and up-to-date database of museums and collections around the world (including medical history museums) and they also publish a newsletter, edited by Lyndel King — the last issue (June 2006) is available to members of the UMAC only, but earlier issues can be read here.
