Clips on timeline "lost": Is there a hotkey to re-center playhead?

I keep inadvertently compressing/expanding my timeline and losing sight of my active clips in the timeline. Is there a hotkey to re-center/focus the playhead-cursor so it pops back into view without fiddling with the expand/compress icons? Thanks!
